Several Trader Joe’s salads have been recalled due to potentially containing pieces of glass/hard plastic.

All of the relevant at-risk salads have been completely removed from store shelves (and destroyed!), so you don’t need to hold off on buying any version of these that you see still being sold at TJ’s.

Here’s the list of salads affected:

(Note: only the salads matching the exact criteria listed in parentheses are affected!)

• Trader Joe’s White Meat Chicken Salad (sold in AZ, CA, NV, UT, CO, LA, NM, OK, or TX with SKU number 98091, Use By date of 11/10 through 11/21 and U.S.D.A. “INSPECTED” code P-40299)

• Trader Joe’s Curried White Chicken Deli Salad (sold in AZ, CA, NV, UT, CO, LA, NM, OK, or TX with SKU number 96426, Use By date of 11/10 through 11/21 and U.S.D.A. “INSPECTED” code P-40299)

• Trader Joe’s Turkey Cranberry Apple Salad (sold in AZ, CA, NV, UT, ID, OR, or WA with SKU number 60983, Use By date of 11/10 through 11/21 and U.S.D.A. “INSPECTED” code P-40299)

If you bought one of these salads in a different state than the ones listed, or with a different Use By date or “Inspected” code, it’s perfectly safe to eat (so enjoy and leave a review!).

Did you buy one of the affected salads? You can return it to your local TJ’s store for a full refund.

Trader Joe’s has issued a recall of one lot of their Trader Giotto’s Caesar Salad with Chicken Breast (with SKU 06832)­ sold in their CA, CO, ID, LA, NV, OK, OR, TX, UT, and WA locations.

This recall only applies to salads with a “USE BY” date of June 28th.

The reason for the recall? Undeclared fish (specifically anchovies), wheat, soy, and “Product may contain traces of shellfish” labeling. So if you’re not allergic to any of those things, no need to return it.
