Wegmans FYFGA Organic Chicken Noodle Soup is being recalled, the grocery store chain announced last week.
Newsweek reached out to Wegmans via phone on Tuesday night and was unable to leave a message.
Numerous recalls have been initiated in the past year because of potentially damaged products, foodborne illness, undeclared food allergens or the potential for bacteria.
Millions of Americans experience food sensitivities or food allergies every year. According to the FDA, the nine “major” food allergens in the United States are eggs, milk, fish, wheat, soybeans, crustacean shellfish, sesame, tree nuts and peanuts.
According to the recall, the soup was sold in a 16-ounce container. The recall is due to fears of possible red plastic foreign material in the soup.
The recalled soup’s UPC number is 0-77890-31666-5 with lot code numbers 120925-6D and 120925-7D. The product’s best-by date is February 17, 2026, Wegmans notes.
Customers who have purchased the recalled soup can return it for full refund, the grocery chain says. People with additional questions may contact Wegmans Food Markets via phone at 1-855-934-3663 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET any day of the week.
In an email to Newsweek last year, the FDA said: “Most recalls in the U.S. are carried out voluntarily by the product manufacturer and when a company issues a public warning, typically via news release, to inform the public of a voluntary product recall, the FDA shares that release on our website as a public service.
“The FDA’s role during a voluntary, firm-initiated, recall is to review the recall strategy, evaluate the health hazard presented by the product, monitor the recall, and as appropriate alert the public and other companies in the supply chain about the recall.
“The FDA provides public access to information on recalls by posting a listing of recalls according to their classification in the FDA Enforcement Report, including the specific action taken by the recalling company. The FDA Enforcement Report is designed to provide a public listing of products in the marketplace that are being recalled.”
Wegmans also recalled Qunol Turmeric Supplements, Gerber Arrowroot Biscuits and True Sea Moss Gel Superfood in January.
The Gerber-related recall was connected to a larger nationwide warning, alerting customers to the product sold in a 5.5-ounce package from July 2025 to September 2025 across the United States.
“The material comes from an arrowroot flour supplier who initiated a recall. We are no longer working with the flour supplier,” the recall notes.
