MONDAY, April 13, 2026 — Select bags of Lundberg jasmine rice are being pulled from store shelves.

Lundberg Family Farms is voluntarily recalling certain bags of the company's organic white jasmine rice sold nationwide.

The Richvale, California-based company told Health that the rice, sold at grocery stores including Wegman's, may contain foreign material, which could pose a safety hazard.

The recall includes:

  • Product: Regenerative Organic Certified® White Jasmine Rice
  • Size: 2 pounds
  • UPC: 073416-040281
  • Best-by dates: Feb. 1, 2027 (lot 260201) and Feb. 2, 2027 (lot 260202)
  • Total affected: About 4,500 cases
  • The recall is classified as Class II, meaning the product could cause temporary or medically reversible health effects, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said.

    The company told Health that it notified the FDA, but the agency has not yet issued a public notice.

    If you own this brand of white rice with one of the affected lot codes, throw it away. You can return it for a full refund if you bought it at Wegman's.
