A batch of Spar Chèvre goats cheese has been recalled due to the possible presence of listeria monocytogenes.
The affected batch is a 100g size pack and has a use by date of 12 August.
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has requested that retailers remove the products from sale and display recall notices at point-of-sale.
The FSAI said that there is currently no evidence that this recall is linked with the listeriosis outbreak related to recent ready-to-heat meals, or the recall of spinach and mixed leaves products.
Consumers are advised not to eat the implicated batch.
Batches of mixed leaves, rocket and lettuce products sold in Irish supermarkets were recently recalled due to the detection of listeria monocytogenes.
It came after the recall of over 200 ready-made meals produced by Ballymaguire Foods.
Production resumed at Ballymaguire Foods late last week following a suspension after the detection of the harmful bacteria at one of its facilities.
The FSAI said symptoms of listeria can include mild flu-like symptoms, or gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
In rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications.
The authority said that certain individuals, like babies, pregnant people, and those with weakened immune systems, like the elderly, are more vulnerable to listeria monocytogenes infections.
The incubation period, or the time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing, is on average three weeks, according to the FSAI, but can range between three and 70 days.
