Trader Joe’s cookies may contain rocks, company says in new recall

Trader Joe’s, the California-based chain grocery chain, announced a recall affecting two cookie products which the company said "may contain rocks" or another foreign material.

Trader Joe’s has announced a recall of two cookie products, as they "may contain rocks," the company said in a statement.

The California-based chain grocery chain announced Friday that it was "alerted" by its supplier that the affected products — Trader Joe’s Almond Windmill Cookies (SKU# 98744) and Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Chunk and Almond Cookies (SKU# 82752) — potentially contained "foreign material" or "rocks."

According to Trader Joe’s, the Windmill Cookies have "sell by" dates ranging from Oct. 19, 2023, to Oct. 21, 2023; the Chocolate Chunk and Almond Cookies have "sell by" dates from Oct. 17 to Oct. 21, 2023.

The company said it removed the recalled cookies from store shelves and destroyed them. It further urges customers not to eat the product and to discard them appropriately.
