The Great Value Chicken broth from Walmart was recalled in late 2024 and announced in early 2025 was due to potential packaging failures which could cause spoilage and it affected stores in several Southern States, with customers being advised to discard the product.
Although if there's no issue with your current Great Value Chicken Broth it's okay to use it still.
The soups that were recalled were some Campbell's Soups, Molly's Kitchen Soups, Sysco Soups, Verve Soups, Health Request Soups, Life Cuisine Soups, Crafted Market Soups and H-E-B soups due to some possible contamination with foreign materials like wood or undeclared allergens like wheat or milk.
The key recalls on these soups which occurred in 2025 include for wood in cilantro for Campbell's Chicken Tortilla Soup and Thai Soups.
And for allergen issues in the Signature SELECT Creamy Chicken & Wild Rice Soup.
And even some other brands that affected many states across the United States.
