Nestlé Recalls Lean Cuisine and Stouffer’s Meals Over Contamination Risk

The recall affects four frozen meal varieties due to the potential presence of 'wood-like material,' with one reported choking incident.

Nestlé USA has issued a voluntary recall of specific Lean Cuisine and Stouffer’s frozen meals produced between August 2024 and March 2025.
The affected products include Lean Cuisine Butternut Squash Ravioli, Spinach Artichoke Ravioli, Lemon Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry, and Stouffer’s Party Size Chicken Lasagna.
The recall was initiated following consumer complaints, including one potential choking incident, and applies to products distributed nationwide from September 2024 to March 2025.
Consumers are advised not to consume the recalled products and to return them to the retailer for a refund or replacement.
Nestlé is collaborating with the FDA and USDA to investigate the issue, which it describes as isolated, and no other products are impacted.
