2 Food Recalls You Need to Know About This Week
This week's roundup includes a refrigerated item from Trader Joe's, a shelf-stable salsa, and a defunct kitchen appliance part. Use this guide to find out what to toss or return for a refund or replacement.
On April 28, 2025, Trader Joe's recalled 500 units of its ready-to-eat sesame miso salad with salmon, which was distributed among 18 states. During the packaging process, sealed packets of Parmesan cheese crumbles were mistakenly placed in the salad containers instead of crispy onion packets. The salad usually doesn't contain any traces of milk, so this accidental swap introduced an undisclosed milk allergen.
Given that milk is one of the nine most common food allergens in the United States, those with the allergy couldn't safely enjoy the food they purchased.Product Name: Trader Joe's Sesame Miso Salad with Salmon

Subway owner makes major billion-dollar fast food acquisition
Many of us take our favorite fast food restaurants for granted. After all, these dining establishments aren't exactly made for us to meditate on. Related: Lowe's makes one of its largest ever billion-dollar acquisitions They're intended to serve up a hot meal quickly and allow customers to get on their way as fast as possible. And many newer conveniences and advancements have only made rapid dining even quicker. Drive-thrus, mobile ordering, and delivery options allow customers to get their meals with just a click of a button -- or sometimes without even leaving their homes or cars. So it's probably not often that you consider the underlying business and logistics that make your favorite fast food meal possible. For instance, not many people think about the Starbucks business model. We just know that there's one on every corner, and that seems to work pretty well. But Starbucks has spent years researching and discovering that a cafe on every corner doesn't just capture the maximum number of patrons -- it also crowds out competition. Starbucks isn't alone. Fast food companies across the U.S. have deliberated for years on business best practices -- and rapidly change based on what they learn. Image source: Shutterstock Fast food restaurants are constantly working to improve the customer experience so they can quickly serve as vast of a population as possible. In the 2010s, for example, when having a wide array of choices was popular, menus expanded. More Food & Dining: Popular Mexican chain closing all restaurants, no bankruptcyIconic Warren Buffett candy store suddenly closing after 30 yearsWalmart's Sam's Club makes a Costco-style food court changePopular Trader Joe's wine brand has bad news, making harsh choice Suddenly, chains from Chipotle to Starbucks to Subway to Wendy's grew their menus to offer more choices for a diverse customer base. Nowadays, many customers are more health-conscious. So chains like Steak and Shake and In-N-Out are doing away with less healthful ingredients and swapping them for things like beef tallow or less-processed products. Of course, those at the top of the food chain are always in growth mode. In addition to catering to an ever-changing customer taste, the biggest fast food chains are constantly expanding to either beat out competition -- or buy them outright. And now, Roark Capital, a private equity firm, will buy Dave's Hot Chicken -- a popular fried chicken chain. Related: Popular fast-food burger chain closes all restaurants in key area Dave's Hot Chicken serves things like chicken sliders with varying levels of heat, ranging from no spice to reaper level. It has over 300 locations across the globe. The deal, which is reportedly worth about $1 billion, will allow Dave's Hot Chicken to expand further. It currently has plans to grow up to 400 restaurants around the world by the end of 2025. Roark Capital owns a fast food portfolio which includes Subway, which has been struggling lately. It closed over 600 restaurants in 2024. It also has substantial investments across the fast food industry. "Our largest sector, food and restaurants, encompasses investments in brands such as: Inspire Brands (the owner of Arby's, Baskin Robbins, Buffalo Wild Wings, Dunkin', Jimmy John's, and Sonic), Subway, Nothing Bundt Cakes, CKE Restaurants (the owner of Carl's Jr and Hardee's), GoTo Foods (the owner of Auntie Anne's Pretzels, Carvel Ice Cream, Cinnabon, Jamba, McAlister's Deli, Moe's Southwest Grill, and Schlotzsky's), Miller's Ale House, Culver's, Jim 'N Nick's BBQ, and previously Corner Bakery, Il Fornaio, Naf Naf Middle Eastern Grill, The Cheesecake Factory (the owner of North Italia and Flower Child), and Wingstop," it writes on its website.

Gold price today, Friday, June 6, 2025: Gold opens below $3,400 ahead of May jobs report
Gold (GC=F) futures opened at $3,377.40 per ounce Friday, up 0.8% from Thursday's close of $3,350.70. Friday's opening price is down slightly from intraday highs above $3,400 achieved earlier this week. The May jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, released Friday, showed slower hiring and no change from April's unemployment rate of 4.2%. Nonfarm payroll rose by 139,000, beating the expected increase of 126,000, but lagging April's revised increase of 147,000. The stable unemployment rate was in line with expectations. Investors are watching jobs data closely to gauge the economic impact of President Donald Trump's tariff policy and trade war. Rising unemployment may encourage investors to trim their stock positions in favor of gold as they brace for a possible recession. Learn more: How to invest in gold in 4 steps The opening price of gold futures on Friday is up 0.8% from Thursday's close of $3,350.70 per ounce. Friday's opening price marks a gain of 2% over the past week, compared to the opening price of $3,315.10 on May 30. In the past month, the gold futures price has risen 0.4% compared to the opening price of $3,365.50 on May 6. In the past year, gold is up 43% from the opening price of $2,355 on June 6, 2024. Don't forget you can monitor the current price of gold on Yahoo Finance 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Want to learn more about the current top-performing companies in the gold industry? Explore a list of the top-performing companies in the gold industry using the Yahoo Finance Screener. You can create your own screeners with over 150 different screening criteria. The next time you go to Costco (COST), you may want to pick up some gold with that rotisserie chicken. Gold prices have been on a run lately, and what more convenient place can you find to buy a commodity? In fact, the club store sells gold bars, silver coins, and platinum bars — three precious metals that many investors use to diversify their wealth. Learn more: Silver prices hit 13-year high as dollar weakens amid tariff uncertainty: 'The breakout has been brewing' The club store first offered gold bars in 2023, then added silver (SI=F) and platinum over the next year or so. Meanwhile, gold is hanging around its all-time high. Gold, silver, and platinum are all up more than at least 22% so far in 2025. Intrigued by Costco's precious metals offering? Read more here to learn key considerations for precious metals investing, the details of the Costco selection, and tips for managing your new investment. Whether you're tracking the price of gold since last month or last year, the price-of-gold chart below shows the precious metal's steady upward climb in value. Historically, gold has shown extended up cycles and down cycles. The precious metal was in a growth phase from 2009 to 2011. It then trended down, failing to set a new high for nine years. In those lackluster years for gold, your position will negatively impact your overall investment returns. If that feels problematic, a lower allocation percentage is more appropriate. On the other hand, you may be willing to accept gold's underperforming years so you can benefit more in the good years. In this case, you can target a higher percentage. The precious metal has been in the news lately, and many analysts are bullish on gold. In May, Goldman Sachs Research predicted gold would reach $3,700 a troy ounce by year-end 2025. That would equate to a 40% increase for the year, based on gold's January 2 opening price of $2,633. Rising demand from central banks, along with uncertainty related to changing U.S. tariff policy, are the factors driving the increase.
