The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that food manufacturer BEF Foods is voluntarily recalling its “Park Street Deli Macaroni & Cheese” products. The decision came after routine inspections revealed that the items might contain soy lecithin, an ingredient omitted from the product label. For consumers with severe soy allergies or sensitivities, ingesting this product poses a serious health risk.

Scope of the Aldi Mac and Cheese Recall

The recall impacts approximately 58,405 cases—totaling roughly 525,000 individual units—of the 20-ounce refrigerated macaroni and cheese side dishes. These items were distributed and sold at Aldi supermarket locations nationwide.

Important Note for Consumers: The FDA strongly advises anyone who purchased the affected product not to consume it. Instead, throw the item away or return it to your local Aldi store for a full refund.

Affected Product Codes and FDA Details

To determine if your purchase is part of the current Aldi Mac and Cheese recall, check the product codes printed on the outer plastic packaging. Detailed information regarding specific lot numbers and expiration dates can be verified directly through the official FDA enforcement report.
