Roughly 184,000 cans of Amy’s Kitchen soup have been recalled over a manufacturing problem with the pull tabs that seal the cans.
The voluntary recall only impacts Amy’s Organic Lentil Soup of the Light in Sodium variety. The recalled cans have a lot number of 60D0924 and a best by date of April 2027.
“Amy’s recalled the lot out of an abundance of caution to ensure the high quality of its products. No other Amy’s products or lots are involved,” a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
The company sells soup at major nation chains like Target, Walmart, and Kroger, as well as more regional chains like Sprouts in California and Hy-Vee in the Midwest.
The FDA has categorized the soup recall as Class II meaning, “a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
A Class II recall is less serious than a Class I recall which is when it’s believed that the product “will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.”
The soup has been recalled in the following states:
- Arizona
- California
- Colorado
- Connecticut
- Florida
- Georgia
- Iowa
- Idaho
- Illinois
- Indiana
- Maryland
- Maine
- Missouri
- North Carolina
- New Hampshire

Another unrelated soup recall was issued this week involving Tasty Kitchen Chicken Noodle Condensed Soup. The soup was imported from Canadian firm BCI Foods and includes a best by date of 2028 FE 04 listed on the cans. There have been no reports of injury or illness and the recall was initiated because the food wasn’t presented for inspection by the USDA, according to a press release from the government agency.
The U.S. has been acutely aware of how tainted food can impact wide swaths of the population this summer. The country is experiencing at least four different cyclosporiasis outbreaks at the moment, an explosive diarrhea parasite. One of those outbreaks is tied to iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms but the source of other outbreaks remains a mystery. It seems like a safe bet that 2026 will be the worst year on record for cyclosporiasis in the U.S.
The federal government under President Donald Trump has added to confusion and concern, given the regime’s rather quirky views on public health. The Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is a notorious anti-vaccine advocate and an evangelist for his own unorthodox eating habits. Kennedy has overseen a steep rise in the number of measles cases with a new record already set for 2026, the worst year since measles was declared eliminated in the U.S. in 2000. There have been 2,318 confirmed cases of measles in 2026 and there are still five months to go.
The U.S. saw 2,200 cases in all of 2025. Make America Healthy Again, am I right?
