Spain’s Agencia Española de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutrición (AESAN) published alert ES2026/678 on 9 November 2026 over the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes in Priégola dairy products. The notice lists eight affected batch numbers across eight product descriptions. Initial distribution was reported in Madrid and the Valencian Community, and AESAN said redistribution to other regions could not be ruled out.
AESAN said it received the notification from Madrid’s health authorities through the Sistema Coordinado de Intercambio Rápido de Información (SCIRI), the system used to coordinate food-safety actions among Spanish authorities. The company reported a possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes during its own checks and notified the authorities to keep potentially unsafe food from reaching consumers.
The products named in the AESAN notice are Leche Fresca Entera Priégola 1 Litro; Leche Fresca Semidesnatada Priégola 1 Litro; Leche Fresca Desnatada Priégola 1 Litro; Leche Fresca Semidesnatada Priégola SIN LACTOSA 1 Litro; Priégola Lában Cremoso (Leche Fermentada) 1 Litro; Priégola Simbiotic Drink (Leche Fermentada) 500 ml; Nata Fresca Priégola 1 Litro; and Nata Fresca Priégola 250 ml. The notice therefore includes fresh whole milk in addition to the semi-skimmed, skimmed and lactose-free milk, fermented-milk and cream products.
The listed batches are 299, 300, 302, 303, 307, 308, 309 and 310. AESAN’s page was updated on 10 November 2026 and recommends that consumers who have any of the listed products refrain from consuming them.
Regional authorities have been asked through SCIRI to check that the affected products are removed from commercial channels. The alert concerns a different product from the earlier ricotta warning involving EROSKI.
Anyone with an affected product at home is advised not to consume it. Anyone who has eaten one of the listed batches and develops symptoms compatible with listeriosis, including vomiting, diarrhoea or fever, should contact a health centre.
