Third Recall Issued At Trader Joe’s; Crackers May Contain Metal

NEW JERSEY —Trader Joe's has issued yet another recall because one of its food items may contain foreign objects, and is telling consumers in New Jersey and across the nation not to eat a variety of branded Multigrain Crackers.

The specialty retailer's supplier alerted them that certain Trader Joe’s Multigrain Crackers with Sunflower and Flax Seeds "may contain metal," according to a news announcement. The affected crackers have a SKU number of 76156, and the product has a best by date between March 1 and March 5, 2024.

"No injuries have been reported to date, and all potentially affected product has been removed from sale and destroyed," said the company.

Trader Joe's asks any customers who bought or received the Multigrain Crackers with Sunflower and Flax Seeds to check the boxes and throw them away if they are part of a recall, and not to eat them.

"We urge you to discard the product or return it to any Trader Joe’s for a full refund," said the retailer.

As mentioned above, this is the third recall that Trader Joe's has issued within the span of a month, because a supplier alerted company officials of possible non-edible objects in the product.

In late July, the grocer recalled its Almond Windmill Cookies and Dark Chocolate Chunk and Almond Cookies because certain packages may contain rocks.

Just two days later, Trader Joe's urged people to discard its Unexpected Broccoli Cheddar Soup, because the prepackaged soups "may contain insects."

Customers with questions may contact Trader Joe's Customer Relations at 626-599-3817, from Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern Time, or submit a query online.

Trader Joe's has 18 locations in New Jersey.
