Costco has plenty of products perfect for the cooler months: boxes of pho, whole-leaf tea packs, and hot cocoa bombs. One comfort food that has been popular for many is its clam chowder from Ivars. According to one Reddit user, its a creamy dish that only requires a little bit of salt as a seasoning option. Another Redditor wrote, “excellent chowdah for store bought.” This packaged version of chowder takes its name from a classic seafood and chowder restaurant in Seattle, Washington (per Instagram).
The customer who first found the plastic pieces reached out to Ivars on October 17. No “illnesses or injuries” have come to light so far. Customers are advised to check their Ivars ready-to-use soup containers for the use-by date and discard the items that match the specified details. They can also choose to hand back the products to the Costco store where theyll receive a refund. In case of any questions or doubts, customers can contact Ivars at 1-425-493-1402. The helpline is operational Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., PST.
Unfortunately, Ivars refrigerated packaged chowder is currently dealing with an unexpected issue. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Ivars clam chowder is being recalled on account of the possibility that some of its products may have “hard, sharp opaque plastic pieces” within them. The item to look out for is the Kettle Classic Clam Chowder with Uncured Bacon. Its Costco item number is 1270666. According to a report by Miami Herald, this incident took place after a consumer came across plastic pieces in their clam chowder. Costco warehouses in several states are currently a part of this recall.

Like most clam chowders, Legal Seafoods recipe includes littleneck clams, garlic, onions, potatoes, and cream. Yet, theres a secret ingredient that makes it stand out from all the other chowder recipes. The key to that signature flavor is nothing more than a little salt pork and the cracklings produced while rendering it.
