Aldi Pulls Simply Nature Spinach Bites in Class II Recall Over Possible Rodent Hair

The FDA says the limited, two-state action carries a risk of temporary or medically reversible health effects.

Overview

  • The recall covers 12-ounce Simply Nature Spinach Bites from lot G25CF-02B (UPC 4099100247992), with about 7,894 units distributed in Maryland and Pennsylvania.
  • Dr. Praeger’s Sensible Foods initiated the recall, and the FDA has classified it as Class II for potential rodent hair contamination.
  • The action began January 16, 2026, received its Class II designation on March 16, and remains ongoing, according to FDA records.
  • Shoppers are advised not to eat the affected bites and may return them to Aldi for a full refund; the retailer has removed the item from select stores.
  • No illnesses have been reported, and FDA standards allow recalls when contamination exceeds acceptable defect levels.
