Chicken soup dumplings

Trader Joe’s pulls in a massive number of customers with its frozen food section, but the chain store’s loyalists need to be a bit more wary after the grocer just recalled one of its major products. Earlier this March, the company announced that it’s recalling “Trader Joe’s Steamed Chicken Soup Dumplings” with a lot of code of C1-1 or C1-2 and the best date of March 7, 2025.

According to the Food Safety and Inspection Service, there are about 62,000 pounds of the product, which are sold in 6 oz. boxes, that are being pulled off the market. The reason for the recall is that there’s potential contamination by foreign materials in the dumpling packages. More specifically, hard plastic.

Experts said that Trader Joe’s has been dealing with customer complaints about hard plastic, but there have been no confirmed reports of illnesses or injuries from the soup dumplings yet. They also warned people who bought the product to throw them away or return them to the store, and Trader Joe’s said it would offer a full refund for the product if returned.

  1. I’m not able to shop at Trader Joe’s. The nearest location is an hour drive time. I absolutely loved it when I lived in California, Florida is a little challenging even for the nostalgia value💕
    However, I am curious about any updates on the Items mentioned in this article. The latest recalls were almost a year ago. Any idea of the results from those recalls? Have substitutions been offered?
    Although many have started following simple recipes for everyday dishes, there are many fans of Trader Joe’s that find their assortment of food, produce and seafood without comparing.

  2. The difference is when aware of the problem, Trader Joe , takes that merchandise off the market while the food stores in USA are going to sell the remain stock of it still in store and never advises the clients of it’s dangerous consequences. TJ does it the way it is done in Europe!!!

  3. Our problem is the jumbo eggs. It is at least 5 weeks that all the jumbo eggs (which we prefer) have had double yolks increasing the cholesterol greatly) I can remove 1 yolk which is a nusence and a great waste.
    We are now paying a very high price for this luxury and prefer buying from Trader Joe, as far as I know in our area there is only 1 other store that caries jumbo and prefer Trader Joe. We are wasting a lot of product and money.
    The eggs can be candeled or looked at in some way to avoid this problem (a very old way) I assume they’re is new technology today.
    Would appreciate the company investigate my problems double yolks add a lot of cholesterol.

  4. Trader Joe’s appears to be repeatedly shooting itself in the foot. It also appears that the “foreign matter” found in the food is very specific and even intentionally placed there. It reminds me of the wave of food poisoning that swept through Chipotle a few years back. And of course, of the very worst case scenario, the 1982 Tylenol poisonings in Illinois. People need to stop buying prepackaged ANYTHING.
