    The product, in the report: Panchos White Queso in a 32 ounce plastic container purchased at Costco

    I purchased a container of Panchos White Queso made by Sabrosura Foods from Costco and dropped it while putting it in my refrigerator. The container shattered, sending big and small pieces of sharp plastic into to queso. This is very dangerous!!! The tiny pieces of sharp plastic went into the queso and could not be seen. My first instinct was to transfer the cheese to a new container. Fortunately, I took a closer look and strained the queso through a wire strainer. I found at least 5 small, sharp pieces of plastic which could cause serious injury if swallowed. I am horrified at how dangerous this could be for consumers. I only dropped the container from a height of 2-3 feet. This shattering of the plastic could easily be duplicated. I have pictures of the container and the small plastic bits. I have tried by email and phone to report this danger to Sabrosura Foods but no one responds in their customer service department. Please remove this dangerous product from stores!
