WASHINGTON / RankWire.AI / – A voluntary recall has been announced by federal health authorities for Lundberg Family Farms organic white Jasmine rice, classified as a Class II health risk because of concerns over foreign object contamination. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s recent update identifies roughly 4,600 bags distributed across 13 states. Food safety officials and retail partners have taken steps to block inventory, while regulatory inspectors oversee containment efforts across distribution centers in the eastern, midwestern, and southern regions.
The product recall specifically involves 1-pound poly bags of Lundberg Family Farms Sustainable California White Jasmine Rice, with lot code 24154 and a best-by date of August 22, 2025. According to federal enforcement records published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, approximately 4,600 individual retail units are impacted, distributed to grocery chains and distribution centers in 13 states. The update from the FDA states Lundberg Family Farms white rice jasmine recall affects 13 states, as retail inventory systems generate automated checkout blocks for the affected product batches.
The recall was triggered after internal quality controls detected foreign material—specifically small glass fragments—within a batch of the product. Under regulatory guidelines, a Class II classification indicates that exposure to the contaminated product might lead to temporary or reversible health issues, though the chance of severe health consequences remains low. Public health officials have confirmed that no adverse health incidents or consumer injuries linked to this lot have been reported so far.

The affected product is distributed to retail stores across California, Oregon, Wisconsin, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia. Major grocery retailers receiving shipments from Lundberg Family Farms have been instructed to isolate remaining inventory and remove the specified lot numbers from their distribution centers immediately. Retail outlets have also activated electronic point-of-sale alerts to prevent the affected bags from passing through registers.
Lundberg Family Farms’ food safety teams have confirmed that their production facilities underwent operational reviews to identify the source of the foreign material and strengthen manufacturing controls. Company representatives issued guidance advising consumers who purchased the 1-pound bags to avoid consuming the product and to return it for a full refund. Officials emphasize that other rice varieties, package sizes, and lot codes from Lundberg remain unaffected by this recall.

Regulatory inspectors will continue overseeing the recall process until all affected units are either recovered, destroyed, or returned. The FDA offers an online enforcement database where consumers and buyers can verify lot numbers and check for active food safety notices. Public health agencies recommend consumers with dietary concerns or suspicions about product exposure consult medical professionals or report incidents to regional FDA complaint coordinators.
Lundberg Family Farms remains in close contact with federal agencies to complete the necessary administrative steps to close the Class II enforcement case. The company’s quality assurance team has implemented enhanced physical screening procedures on their packaging lines to ensure compliance with federal food safety standards.
