A recall of approximately 653,000 Trader Joe’s mango tangerine scented candles is underway, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
The recall, announced Thursday in a CSPC alert, was precipitated by a “fire hazard” that the limited-time seasonal 5.7-ounce candles may carry for Trader Joe’s customers.
When lit, the candle flame “can spread from the wick to the wax, causing a larger than expected flame, posing a fire hazard,” the grocery store chain said.
Sales of the recalled candles, which all sport the SKU number 56879 on their bottoms, occurred at Trader Joe’s locations across the country in June.
