Two Major Soup Recalls Announced Nationwide

If you’ve recently purchased premade soups or stews, it’s time to double-check your pantry and refrigerator.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has issued two separate recalls involving:

• Mislabeled chicken soups with undeclared wheat allergen
• Beef stew possibly contaminated with pieces of wood

These products were sold at major grocery retailers including Albertsons, Wegmans, Safeway, Tom Thumb, Randalls, and others across multiple U.S. states.

Chicken Soup: Mislabeled and Allergen Risk

The first recall involves 24-ounce cups of Signature SELECT Creamy Chicken & Wild Rice Soup, which were mislabeled as Signature SELECT Chicken Corn Chowder.

The label on the lid is correct, but the side of the cup shows the wrong product name — and wheat, a common allergen, is not clearly listed on the packaging.

This poses a risk to people with wheat allergies or sensitivities.

Affected products were sold at:

• Albertsons
• Safeway
• Tom Thumb
• Randalls
• Lucky stores

The states impacted are Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

Details to check:

• Best by date: June 24, 2025
• Lot code: 8225 5100 (printed on the bottom of the cup)

Beef Stew: Potential Contamination

The second recall affects 20-ounce cans of Dinty Moore Beef Stew, sold at Wegmans.

The issue? Some cans may contain pieces of wood, creating a choking or injury hazard.

Product details:

• Brand: Dinty Moore Beef Stew
• Manufacturer: Hormel Foods
• UPC: 000-37600-21583-1
• Best by: February 2028
• Plant code: EST 199G T02045

If you have any of these products:

• Return them to the place of purchase for a full refund, or dispose of them safely.
