Trader Joe's recalled one of its falafel products on Friday over concerns that the item could contain rocks. This marked the fourth product recall from the grocer in the past week, as other foodstuffs were also reported to possibly contain rocks and insects.
In a recall notice, Trader Joe's said that its Fully Cooked Falafel "may contain rocks," and that "all potentially affected product has been removed from sale and destroyed." The grocer urged consumers to either throw the product away or return it to stores for a refund.
