Emergency Aldi Recall: 5 Popular Products Pulled From Shelves Across 37 States
Yesterday at Aldi, I noticed several shelves unusually empty—and now I know why.
Aldi has issued a major food recall affecting shoppers in 37 states, following safety alerts for undeclared allergens and possible contamination.
In coordination with suppliers and federal agencies, Aldi pulled several products from shelves to protect consumer health.
Items like Welby Vitamin B12 (due to undeclared peanuts), Casa Mamita Churro Bites (undeclared milk), and Atlantic Salmon Portions (undeclared soy) are just a few of the notable recalls.
Shoppers are being urged to check their pantries and immediately discard or return affected products for a full refund.
These recalls aren’t just precautionary—they involve real risks for those with allergies or sensitivities.
1. Casa Mamita Churro Bites: Milky Surprise Inside
Sweet treats turned sour! I bought these chocolate-filled churro bites for my lactose-intolerant nephew’s birthday party—thank goodness I spotted the recall notice before serving them. Camerican International’s Casa Mamita Churro Bites were yanked from shelves on June 4 after discovering they contain milk not listed on the packaging.
The recall affects 13 states including Alabama, Florida, North Carolina, and Tennessee. Milk allergens can cause reactions ranging from uncomfortable to life-threatening. Check your pantry right now—if you find these churro bites, don’t risk it! Return them to your local Aldi for a refund, or toss them if you can’t make it to the store soon.
2. Atlantic Salmon Portions: Soy Surprise Swimming Inside
Fishy business alert! Santa Monica Seafood’s Atlantic Salmon Portions with Seafood Stuffing seemed like the perfect quick dinner option until I noticed the recall notice at my local Aldi. Recalled on May 27, these seafood packages contain undisclosed soy ingredients that pose serious risks to those with soy allergies.
The affected products were only sold in California, Nevada, and Arizona stores, but that doesn’t make the danger any less serious. Got these salmon portions chilling in your freezer? Don’t take chances! Either return them to your local Aldi store for a full refund or dispose of them properly. My neighbor with a soy allergy was grateful for the heads-up—these hidden ingredients could have sent her straight to the ER.
3. Welby Vitamin B12: The Hidden Peanut Problem
My sister nearly had a terrifying allergic reaction last week from these supplements! RV Pharma’s Welby Vitamin B12, recalled on June 13, contains an undeclared peanut allergen that’s sending shockwaves through the Aldi community. For folks with peanut allergies, this oversight isn’t just inconvenient—it could be extremely dangerous.
The supplements were distributed across all 37 affected states, making this the most widespread recall on our list. If you’ve purchased these vitamins, stop taking them immediately. Aldi is offering full refunds with or without a receipt. I’ve already returned mine and the process was painless—much better than risking an actual allergic reaction!
4. Casa Mamita Chicken & Cheese Taquitos: Metal Fragments Found
Crunch should come from the tortilla, not metal fragments! When I heard about this recall, I immediately checked my freezer and sure enough, I had a contaminated box. Bestway Sandwiches Inc. issued this alarming recall in May after discovering possible metal contamination in their Casa Mamita Chicken & Cheese Taquitos.
Look for 20-oz boxes with UPC code 4061459337471 and best-by dates of 07/03/25 or 09/25/25. The recall spans 31 states, making it one of the most extensive on this list. Metal fragments can cause serious injuries to your mouth, throat, and digestive system. Don’t take chances—either return these taquitos to Aldi for a refund or toss them in the trash right away.
5. Park Street Deli Pork Carnitas: Metal Contamination Concerns
Taco Tuesday nearly turned into a trip to the dentist! I was prepping these carnitas for dinner when my phone buzzed with the recall alert. Cargill Meat Solutions Corp recalled their Park Street Deli Pork Carnitas on April 21 due to potential metal contamination. The affected products come in 16 oz trays with UPC 4099100029352 and use-by dates of 06/30/25 and 07/01/25. Currently, this recall affects 15 states.
Metal fragments can cause serious mouth injuries, broken teeth, and internal damage if swallowed. If you have these carnitas in your fridge, please don’t risk it! I returned mine immediately and got store credit, which I used to buy some safely metal-free chicken instead.
