In May of this year, Trader Joe’s was forced to recall one of its products after it was found to be contaminated with listeria. The product in question was the chicken salad, which had been sold in stores across the country.
The listeria contamination was discovered after several people who had eaten the chicken salad became ill. One person even died. Trader Joe’s issued a recall of the product as soon as the contamination was discovered.
This is not the first time that Trader Joe’s has had to recall a product due to contamination. In 2016, the company had to recall several of its products, including peanut butter and ice cream, due to possible salmonella contamination.
While it is certainly concerning that Trader Joe’s products have been contaminated with listeria and salmonella, it is important to note that these recalls are relatively rare. In both cases, Trader Joe’s acted quickly to remove the contaminated products from store shelves and issue a recall.
