Trader Joe's salad sold in 18 states recalled over packaging mishap
(WHTM/NEXSTAR) — Trader Joe's is recalling a 'limited' number of pre-made salads in 18 states over an undeclared allergen, the company announced this week.
The issue, which affects Trader Joe's Sesame Miso Salad with Salmon, stems from a mistake during packaging, according to Trader Joe's.
'Certain packages … may contain an undeclared allergen (milk) because 500 units of the salad were mistakenly packaged with a sealed packet of parmesan cheese crumbles instead of a packet of crispy onions,' reads a recall alert posted to the company's website.
The salads were sold at Trader Joe's locations in the following states: Alabama, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.
A representative for Trader Joe's confirmed to Nexstar that only the salads sold in the above states were affected by the recall, despite the item being carried at all Trader Joe's locations.
Trader Joe's has plans to open 21 new stores across 12 states: Here's where
Concerned consumers can identify the product by the UPC number (00773164) and use-by dates (April 28, 2025, or April 29, 2025) printed on the packaging.
Those who purchased the recalled salads are urged to throw them away or return them to Trader Joe's for a full refund.
Anyone with additional questions can contact Trader Joe's customer relations at (626) 599-3817 or submit a message via the company's product feedback portal. An alert from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) says customers can also reach out to Taylor Fresh Foods, the Illinois-based company that produced the salads, by calling (855) 455-0098.

Tech giant Foxconn creating 600 jobs with $450M Houston investment
Taiwan-based tech company Foxconn has acquired the Fairbanks Logistics Park, an industrial property situated on 100 acres in northwest Houston. The seller, Dalfen Industrial, announced in a news release on Thursday that the site includes four buildings totaling 1 million square feet of industrial space. Foxconn is reportedly investing $450 million in the property to build an AI server manufacturing facility, according to the Greater Houston Partnership, the largest chamber of commerce in the Houston area. The Fairbanks Logistics Park facility will create 600 direct jobs and have an estimated economic impact of $920 million. 'Foxconn Corp. is based in Taiwan and manufactures electronics for companies such as Apple,' the Greater Houston Partnership said in its New Business Announcements: Q1 2025. 'They are expanding production lines in North Houston to build an AI server.' Foxconn has not publicly commented on the facility in Houston. Dalfen Industrial, which acquired the Fairbanks Logistics Park for $90.6 million in July 2023, did not disclose the sale price to Foxconn. Ingrasys USA, a Foxconn subsidiary, acquired the property in March for $142 million, according to the Financial Times. 'This transaction marks a significant growth move for another Fortune 50 tech manufacturer entering the Houston market — joining the ranks of Apple and Nvidia, who have also announced major investments in the region,' Dalfen Industrial said in a statement. 'Together, these developments are helping to position the city as a growing hub for advanced manufacturing and AI infrastructure. Foxconn's purchase of the Fairbanks Logistics Park arrives in conjunction with Apple Inc. and Nvidia Corp. recently announcing new production facilities in the area. Foxconn supplies high-tech components for both firms. Apple plans to build a 250,000-square-foot server manufacturing facility scheduled to open in 2026. Tech firm Nvidia is building an AI supercomputer manufacturing facility in Houston, also expected to open in 2026.

L.A. lawyer and son-in-law of Tom Girardi pleads guilty to contempt of court
Days after a judge sentenced legal titan Tom Girardi to seven years in prison for stealing from clients, his son-in-law — formerly a high-ranking attorney at his now-defunct firm — pleaded guilty to a federal charge in Illinois. David Lira, 65, of Pasadena, admitted Thursday to one count of contempt of court for defying a Chicago judge's order concerning the distribution of settlement funds to clients whose relatives had perished in a 2018 Indonesian plane crash. As part of broader litigation to hold Boeing accountable for defects in its 737-MAX jets, Lira and Girardi negotiated payouts totaling $7.5 million for a group of widows and orphans in 2020. But the clients, who lived in Indonesia, did not receive their full settlements. Evidence would later emerge that Girardi was routinely using client money to underwrite a lavish lifestyle with his wife, 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star Erika Jayne. Lira 'knew that Girardi did not pay the Lion Air Clients' settlement funds in full, in contravention of [U.S. District] Judge (Thomas) Durkin's orders, despite [the Indonesian clients'] inquiries about and demands for their Settlements,' according to a plea agreement filed Thursday. Durkin referred the case for criminal investigation, and prosecutors in Chicago filed wire fraud and other charges against Lira and Girardi in 2021. Prosecutors dropped the Chicago-based case against Girardi, 86, last month. Girardi was separately convicted of wire fraud last year in Los Angeles, resulting in the seven-year prison sentence handed down this week. Lira, who is married to Girardi's daughter Jacqueline, began working at his father-in-law's firm in 1999. He was sometimes called the firm's senior partner, though Girardi was the sole owner. Lira resigned from Girardi Keese about six months before its 2020 collapse, after confronting his father-in-law about the Lion Air case and demanding that Girardi pay the victims. As he moved on to another firm, Lira did not alert the victims or authorities about Girardi's mishandling of the money. Lira's defense attorney, Damon Cheronis, noted that 'the plea agreement did not assert any acts of fraud on the part of Mr. Lira.' 'Mr. Lira continually asked Mr. Girardi to pay these clients their rightful settlement money pursuant to the court order, however Girardi did not,' Cheronis said in a statement. Lira is scheduled to be sentenced on Oct. 8. Prosecutors have not yet recommended a particular penalty, but they indicated in the plea agreement that under federal sentencing guidelines, Lira faces six to eight years in prison. Girardi and Lira represented the victims in the Lion Air crash alongside Chicago-based lawyer Jay Edelson. It was ultimately Edelson who brought to the judge's attention that the Indonesian clients were not paid by Girardi. 'We're pleased that David Lira, after years of portraying himself as an innocent bystander, has finally admitted he is a criminal,' Edelson told The Times on Thursday. 'We remain hopeful that the other criminals who helped Girardi pull off the largest Ponzi scheme in the history of the plaintiff's bar will also face disbarment and long prison sentences.' The widows and orphans ultimately received their settlement payments after Edelson's insurance provider agreed to foot the cost. The State Bar is pursuing disciplinary action against Lira and two other attorneys who worked at Girardi Keese. Lira continues to practice for a Century City law firm, though restrictions imposed by a bar court judge prohibit him from handling client money.
