Whether you’re making a side dish or helming the kitchen to cook the full holiday meal, planning Thanksgiving dinner is stressful.

Now, how about a curveball– what about not being able to purchase an ingredient because it’s been recalled and pulled from grocery store shelves?

The Food and Drug Administration and the United States Department of Agriculture have recently investigated and recalled several products for potential contamination and allergens.

From vegetables to dairy products, here are some items facing recent food recalls.

ORGANIC CARROTS:

California-based Grimway Farms has issued a recall of select bagged organic whole carrots and baby carrots due to a potential E.coli outbreak. The recall includes baby organic carrots with best-if-used-by dates that ranged from Sept. 11 to Nov. 12 and whole organic carrots sold in stores around Aug. 14 to Oct. 23.

The carrots were sold at stores in the U.S. including Walmart, Target, Whole Foods, and Trader Joe’s under multiple brand names including 365, Bunny Luv, Cal-Organic, and Compliments. A full list of the labels, brands, and dates are listed on the recall notices from Grimway Farms and the FDA.

GROUND BEEF:

More than 165,000 pounds of ground beef has been recalled due to potential contamination with E. coli.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Detroit-based Wolverine Packing distributed the ground beef to restaurants across the country. The fresh products have a “use by” date of Nov. 14; frozen products are labeled with a production date of Oct. 22. Both have an establishment number of “EST 2574B” inside the USDA mark of inspection.

The products were sold under brand names Wolverine Packing Co., 1855 Beef, Davis Creek Meals, Farmer’s Choice, Heritage Restaurant Brands and Cheney Brothers, Inc.

BUTTER:

Almost 80,000 pounds of butter sold at Costco has been recalled due to an undeclared allergen.

In October, the Food and Drug Administration issued a recall on 79,200 Kirkland Signature butter from Continental Dairy Facilities Southwest LLC due to an undeclared allergen. The recall was reclassified as a Class II on Nov. 7 to indicate the product could cause “a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.”

The recall covers:

• Kirkland Signature Unsalted Sweet Cream Butter, 16 oz. four 4 oz. sticks, UPC 96619-38496
