Influencers went crazy over microwaveable broth-filled meatballs last year, promoting them as a quick and tasty staple for comforting winter meals.

A 20-second video showing a ‘viral Trader Joe’s chicken meatball hack’ for a soup recipe involving just a handful of ingredients garnered more than 135,000 likes.

Another video of an influencer eating another flavor of dumplings straight from the package with chili sauce as a “one-minute lunch” also garnered thousands of views.

TikTok users described them as “delicious, juicy” and “affordable,” while one consumer noted that “every time I go to Trader Joe’s they sell out.”

U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). Announced Saturday’s retreat.

Officials said the problem was discovered after customers complained of finding pieces of hard plastic in their food.

“There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions or injuries due to consumption of these products,” FSIS said in a statement.

“Anyone concerned about an injury should contact a healthcare provider.”

FSIS said it is “concerned” that some of the products may be in people’s freezers.

“Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them,” they said.

“These products should be discarded or returned to the place of purchase.”

The soup-filled dumplings are described on the box as a “wonder to behold.” both for its display of innovation in Chinese food and for its incredibly comforting flavor profile.”

They can be prepared in just one or two minutes in the microwave.

It comes after Trader Joe’s last month recalled four products that may contain listeria amid a national outbreak linked to contaminated cheese.

The grocer issued warnings about its Green Chicken Enchiladas, Cilantro Salad Dressing, Chopped Corn Salad Kit and Southwest Salad, all of which contain cotija cheese.

The announcement was related to an FDA recall of Rizo-Lopez Foods dairy products, including contaminated cheese, cream and yogurt.

Rizo-Lopez products are also sold in several major supermarket chains, including Food City and Whole Foods.

The outbreak killed two people and affected items were sold across the country.

The CDC said 26 Americans became ill and 23 were hospitalized in 11 states. Two deaths have been reported: one in California and one in Texas.

Trader Joe’s recommended customers throw away the recalled products or return them to a store for a full refund.

Listeria is an infection usually caused by eating foods contaminated with the bacteria listeria monocytogenes.
