Trader Joe's Recalls Chicken Soup Dumplings for Possible Plastic Contamination
Over 61,000 pounds of Trader Joe's steamed chicken soup dumplings are being recalled due to possible contamination with hard plastic from a permanent marker pen. The recall was initiated after consumers reported finding plastic in the product. No related illnesses or injuries have been reported. Consumers are urged to check their freezers for the 6-ounce dumplings produced on Dec. 7, 2023, and can return them to any store location for a full refund. CJ Foods Manufacturing Beaumont Corp. is investigating the issue, emphasizing customer safety as their top priority. Foreign object contamination is a leading cause of food recalls in the US.
