MIA VALERIA CHEESE PRODUCTS ISSUES
Mia Valeria Cheese Products Inc. at 164 Wright Meadow Lane, Kannapolis, NC : FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE form Christopher Velazquez /704-791-9860 ; DATE June 24, 2025. MIA VALERIA CHEESE PRODUCTS ISSUES ALLERGY ALERT ON UNDECLARED MILK IN REQUESON (Ricotta Cheese). Out of an abundance of caution, Mia Valeria Cheese Products Inc. of Kannapolis, NC, is recalling all of its 861 containers of "Maria’s Requeson (Ricotta Cheese)” and 30 containers of “Abuelita’s Requeson (Ricotta Cheese)” because they contain milk which was not declared on the labels. People who have allergies to milk run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products. The recalled Requeson (Ricotta Cheese) was distributed in Kannapolis, Yadkinville, Winston Salem, Greensboro, North Wilkesboro, Taylorsville, Statesville, Hamptonville, and Conover, NC in retail stores. The product comes in a 14 ounce, clear plastic container marked with lot #’s 120 through 162 on the bottom and with expiration dates of 5/23/25 through 7/4/25 marked on the bottom. No illnesses have been reported to date. The recall was initiated after a routine inspection conducted by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services identified that the product labeling did not declare the presence of milk in the ingredient list. To correct this mistake, labels have been revised and now include Milk in the ingredient list. Consumers who have purchased the affected products and have a milk allergy are urged not to consume it. If sensitive to milk allergy, the product should be discarded immediately or returned to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at
