The company says the product reached all Lidl US stores in the listed states, including New York, between July 19 and October 15, 2026. Lidl lists a Tappan store at 37 Route 303 ↗. We have not verified an individual local purchase or illness.

Lidl's October 16 announcement, posted by FDA October 17, says routine testing found Listeria in a lab sample and no illnesses had been reported to date. Questions: 844-747-5435, Monday–Saturday, 8 a.m.–8 p.m. ET.

If you have eaten it

CDC advises ↗ contacting a healthcare provider if you ate recalled food and develop fever with symptoms such as fatigue or muscle aches. Mention the recalled food—especially if pregnant, 65 or older, or immunocompromised. Ask a provider about individual concerns.

Primary sources checked October 17: Lidl's company announcement hosted by FDA, including package photos ↗; Lidl's store listing; CDC guidance dated February 3, 2025. The FDA posting is the company notice, not an independent local investigation. This notice concerns the identified lot, not every Gelatelli flavor or all Lidl food.
