Customers of ALDI have been advised to quickly inspect the expiration dates on a specific product that has been pulled from the shelves due to safety concerns.
This meal product, which may contain a hazardous ingredient, was distributed in Aldi locations throughout three states.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the recall and provided information about the specific batches involved.
Santa Monica Seafood from Rancho Dominguez, California, has voluntarily pulled its Atlantic Salmon Portions with Seafood Stuffing.
The fish sent to Aldi stores across California, Nevada, and Arizona.
Shoppers in these states who have reccently purchased the affected fish item must check the packaging for additional details.
It comes after Santa Monica Seafood discovered that the portions contain soy without consumers knowing.
Those who are particularly allergic to soy could suffer anaphylaxis.
This is a life threatening allergic reaction affecting your ability to breath and causing swelling of the throat.
The FDA noted that the Atlantic Salmon Portions with Seafood Stuffing products in the recall will have the use by date of June, 2, 2025.
This can be found on the white part of the label on the front of the packaging, underneath the picture.
The error was discovered when workers at Santa Monica Seafood conducted routine label inspections on a completed batch.
So far no illnesses have been reported as a result of the undeclared soy.
Shoppers who find that they have an affected product have been told to return it to Aldi.
The grocery chain will issue a full refund or direct exchange.
Concerned customers or those with questions are urged to contact Santa Monica Seafood.

Aldi is not the only chain forced to deal with a food recall over health concerns.
Consumers should also be aware of a popular breakfast item that has been pulled from shelves after plastic fragments were found inside.
Roughly 34,801 cases of Lamb Weston’s frozen hashbrown patties were sold before the contamination was noticed.
The frozen breakfast food was shipped all across the US.
The company voluntarily launched the recall on April 19, 2025, and it remains active, the Food and Drug Administration confirmed.
It’s categorized as a Class II recall, meaning the product may cause temporary or reversible health effects, with a low chance of severe injury.
The company discovered the plastic contamination through routine X-ray testing.
There have also been thousands of gallons of ice cream and frozen yogurt recalled after another case of plastic contamination.
