Trader Joe’s Recalls Some Hummus For Possible Listeria

Bakkavor Foods USA Inc. is recalling two hummus dips sold at Trader Joe’s due to potential listeria contamination; however, only one of the two is sold in Kentucky.

The two flavors being recalled are Trader Joe’s Mediterranean Hummus (SKU #90642) and Trader Joe’s White Bean & Basil Hummus (SKU #91107), sold in 16-ounce plastic tubs, and with “use by” date codes up through and including Dec. 15, 2016, according to a Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The Mediterranean Hummus was not sold in Kentucky.

The “use by” date codes are stamped at the bottom of the tubs, along with the plant identification code “C.” Products with the plant identification code “J” were produced in another facility and are not affected by the recall. According to the release, Trader Joe’s Mediterranean Hummus Snack Pack with Pita Chips (SKU #97136) products are also not part of the recall and are safe to consume.

Bakkavor Foods USA advised customers who purchased the recalled product not to eat it and return it to their place of purchase for a full refund.
