Among the many product recalls announced or updated this week, four stood out.
Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate bars were pulled from shelves over reports of small stones, and liquid egg products from Egg Beaters and Bob Evans were recalled due to bleach contamination.
Dressing from Trader Joe’s was impacted due to undeclared allergens, while a juice was recalled due to contamination from botulism, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning.
Here are the items you need to check your fridge and pantry for this week.
On Tuesday, Tony’s Chocolonely recalled seven batches of two flavors of chocolate bars: Dark Almond Sea Salt and Everything Bar (milk chocolate with caramel, pretzel, almond nougat, and sea salt).
The company pulled the chocolate bars from stores across the country after receiving reports from 12 customers outside the U.S. and Canada who found small stones in the products. The FDA said the rocks were not filtered out during third-party almond harvesting and processing.
The FDA is urging consumers not to eat the recalled chocolate bars. If you have the affected products, return them to the store or throw them away.

More than 200,000 pounds of liquid egg products—sold under the Egg Beaters and Bob Evans brands—were recalled nationwide, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) report published Monday.
After receiving a tip, the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) discovered that the products may contain a cleaning solution made with sodium hypochlorite, a bleaching and disinfecting agent commonly found in household bleach.
FSIS deemed the recall a class III, meaning the risk of harm is low. But the agency is still advising consumers and food service providers to dispose of the affected liquid eggs.

On Sunday, Trader Joe’s Hot Honey Mustard Dressing was recalled from stores in 17 states and Washington, D.C.
The dressing was mislabeled, and the incorrect label does not list the peanut, soy, sesame, or wheat allergens that the product contains. If customers with an allergy or sensitivity to these ingredients consume the recalled dressing, they could be at risk of a severe allergic reaction.
Trader Joe’s is advising customers to return the affected Hot Honey Mustard Dressing to their local store for a refund, or throw it away.

Pumpkin juice from Walker’s Wine Juice was recalled on Tuesday because it could be contaminated with patogens that cause botulism, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning.
The Clostridium botulinum bacteria can produce a toxin that causes botulism. Symptoms can include muscle weakness, dizziness, double-vision, constipation, and difficulty speaking, breathing, or swallowing.
The recalled pumpkin juice was distributed to a Walker’s Wine Juice retail store, as well as commercial wineries in 12 states across the U.S.
The FDA said customers should contact Walker’s Wine Juice for reimbursement and instructions on disposing of the product. If you experience any symptoms of botulism after consuming the recalled pumpkin juice, seek medical attention right away.
