Soups Sold at Wegmans, Albertsons and More Recalled

Ready-to-eat chicken soups and canned stews were recalled, including products sold at Wegmans and Albertsons. The recalls were initiated because the chicken soups were mislabeled and contained undeclared allergens, while the beef stew potentially contained pieces of wood.

According to an announcement by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, ready-to-eat chicken soups are being recalled. They were sold at Albertsons, Tom Thumb, Randalls, Safeway and Lucky stores in the following states: Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. The recalled products are 24-ounce cups of soup featuring a best-by date of June 24, 2025 and lot code “8225 5100” printed on the bottom of the cup. 

The recalled soups have the correct label “Signature SELECT Creamy Chicken & Wild Rice SOUP with White Meat Chicken” on the lid, but they are mistakenly labeled “Signature SELECT Chicken Corn CHOWDER with White Meat Chicken Smoke Flavor Added”  on the side of the cup. They also contain a known allergen, wheat, which is not clearly labeled on the product and poses a risk to those with allergies or sensitivities.  

Additionally, canned beef stew sold at Wegmans was also recalled due to contamination, according to a press release from the grocery store. Produced by Hormel, the 20-ounce cans of Dinty Moore Beef Stew were found to contain wood pieces, prompting a recall. The impacted cans are labeled with a UPC of “000-37600-21583-1” and “Best By Feb. 2028 EST 199G T02045.”

There have been no reported illnesses or injuries due to either recalled products. If you have purchased any of the impacted soups or stews, you are advised to dispose of them immediately or return them to the place of purchase.
