2 Popular Costco Deli Products Recalled for Potential Contaminant

Costco and its supplier, Ventura Foods, have issued a recall for two popular products sold in the club store’s deli section due to the potential presence of a foreign object.

A select lot of Costco’s Caesar Salad and its Chicken Sandwich with Caesar Salad are being recalled because the salad dressing may contain plastic material.

How To Identify the Recalled Costco Deli Products

Costco alerted its members regarding the recall on Nov. 7, and the items are no longer available for purchase at the club store. Additionally, the sell-by dates of the deli items have passed; however, some consumers may still have the contaminated dressing packet in their refrigerators. 

To identify the recalled salad and chicken sandwich with salad, you can look for the item numbers and sell-by dates. 

The recalled Caesar Salad has the item number 19927, and the recalled Chicken Sandwich with Caesar Salad bears the item number 11444.

All the recalled products have best-by dates between Oct. 17 and Nov. 9.

What To Do if You Have the Recalled Costco Deli Products

If you have the recalled Caesar Salad or Chicken Sandwich with Caesar Salad—or more specifically, the Caesar dressing packet—still in your refrigerator, you should not consume it. The dressing itself may contain plastic fragments, which can lead to internal injury if consumed.

Instead, return it to your Costco store for a full refund. For any questions, you can reach out to Costco’s customer service department online.
