Hormel Foods Recalls 256,000 Pounds Of Dinty Moore Beef Stew
The contaminated beef stew was produced on February 4 and affects 20-ounce metal cans that were shipped to retailers nationwide.
Cans are labeled with 'BEST BY FEB 2028.'
Before you open a can of Dinty Moore stew and bite into those meaty chunks, you'd better check the label. Georgia-based Hormel Foods is recalling 256,000 pounds of canned Dinty Moore Beef Stew that could be contaminated with foreign objects—namely, wood.
Three people have complained so far about finding pieces of wood in their beef stew, according to the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service. The FSIS says the contaminated beef stew was produced on February 4 and affects 20-ounce metal cans that were shipped to retailers nationwide.
While recalled products are pulled from store shelves, you could already have a can sitting in your pantry. To know if your cans of Dinty Moore are included in the recall, check the labels for the following:
Cans are labeled with 'BEST BY FEB 2028.'
The label will include the lot code 'T02045' (the lot code may have an additional number at the end).
Also, check for establishment number 'EST 199G.'
If you have a recalled can in your pantry, throw it out or return it to the store where you bought it. Fortunately, there haven't been any confirmed injuries from the contaminated beef stew. If you are concerned about an injury, contact your healthcare provider.
You can contact the FSIS with any questions about food safety by calling 888-674-6854 or emailing MPHotline@usda.gov. Complaints can be reported anytime at foodcomplaint.fsis.usda.gov/eCCF.

Tri Pointe Homes Launches Expansion With Five New Communities Across Three Utah Counties
WEST JORDAN, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tri Pointe Homes, Inc. (NYSE: TPH), one of the nation's largest homebuilders, today announced the opening of its first-ever community in Utah, Polaris at Terraine in West Jordan. This debut marks the beginning of a larger presence in the state, with a total of five upcoming communities opening across Salt Lake, Utah, and Wasatch counties. The expansion serves homebuyers at a time when Utah is thriving. The state has had the nation's best economic outlook for the last 18 years, and has been lauded as best state overall in the country this year. 'At Tri Pointe, we're in the life-changing business – focusing on the customer is what drives our organization,' said Division President for Tri Pointe Homes Utah and Washington Ken Krivanec. 'Our local team has led the charge to select land and design homes that are deeply rooted in Utah's unique lifestyle, culture, and aesthetic. We know that Utah buyers are financially savvy, inspired by design, and that they expect the high-touch, customer-driven experience Tri Pointe Homes offers. We're honored to welcome new neighbors to our first Utah communities, and we look forward to delivering our signature customer care for generations to come.' Tri Pointe Homes opened its Utah division in September 2024 with a new office in Salt Lake City's Sugar House neighborhood, marking a strategic expansion into one of the nation's most dynamic and supply-constrained housing markets. The company plans to open a state-of-the-art Design Studio in the same location in 2026 to give homebuyers a hands-on, immersive design experience. With the combination of an experienced Utah-based team, and the resources of a large national homebuilder, Tri Pointe is uniquely positioned to match the unmet needs of Utah homebuyers through extensive research and a high-touch, customer-driven design experience. Each of these five new neighborhoods focuses on achieving Tri Pointe Homes' mission of building premium homes with deep ties to the communities it serves. The Five New Communities: Polaris at Terraine (West Jordan) is the first Tri Pointe neighborhood to open, with an initial 32 single-family homes up to 3,400 sq. ft. (including finished basements) featuring 3-4 bedrooms and modern farmhouse architecture. Tucked into the foothills of the Oquirrh Mountains, Terraine puts buyers close to downtown while also offering easy access to trails, scenic vistas, and a design that fits the land. The larger planned community emphasizes a deep connection to nature by embracing Utah's native landscapes and high-desert foothills. Sales are anticipated to begin August 2, 2025. The Crossings at Lake Creek (Heber City) is planned to include 139 single-family homes featuring elevated farmhouse and cottage design styles, with up to eight bedrooms and 5,000 sq. ft. (including finished basements). The Crossings' location offers convenient commute times to local employment centers in Salt Lake City, Park City, Provo, and more – and is under 30 minutes away from Deer Valley skiing. The larger planned community is anticipated to feature a future clubhouse, pool, pickleball courts, a fishing pond, and 67 acres of open space and trails. Homes are expected to open for sale in August 2025. Aspire at Holladay Hills (Holladay) and Pavilions at Holladay Hills (Holladay) are two exciting new communities in Holladay, in one of the most in-demand, walkable neighborhoods in Utah. Aspire at Holladay Hills will bring refined urban living to those who want close access to the city's attractions and will offer 57 townhomes. Pavilions at Holladay Hills are six one-of-a-kind luxury estates. All model homes will be designed in collaboration with design expert, Emmy-winning TV host and author, Bobby Berk. Berk is partnering with Tri Pointe Homes to furnish its Holladay Hills models with curated, custom interiors that are functional, personal, and inspiring. Anticipated to go on sale early 2026. Canyon Park (Orem) will offer 79 homes up to 4,100 sq. ft. and is planned to open in early 2026. This redevelopment of the former WordPerfect campus emphasizes thoughtful planning and craftsmanship and offers a rare opportunity to holistically design a neighborhood from the ground up in Orem's beautiful East Bench, about a 20-minute drive from the arts and recreation of Sundance. All Tri Pointe Homes Utah communities offer buyers extensive personalization through curated finish selections, along with the company's HomeSmart ® technology package. This includes cutting-edge technology like a video doorbell, a WiFi door lock, and connected devices for temperature, lighting and more.

Starbucks is discontinuing mobile order and pickup-only stores
You can find original article here Nrn. Subscribe to our free daily Nrn newsletter. Starbucks is doubling down on bringing back the third place as in-store customers remain a top priority for the company. The Seattle-based coffee chain will begin sunsetting its mobile order and pickup-only stores, which were first introduced in 2019, CEO Brian Niccol said during Tuesday's earnings call for the third quarter ended June 29, 2025. Instead, Starbucks will be focusing on implementing two new store prototypes that are off-premises-focused but not exclusively pickup-only. The new standalone prototype, which will open in 2026, has 32 seats, a drive-thru, and approximately a 30% lower cost to build. An urban small format version with approximately 10 seats is under construction in New York City and will open in the next few months, Niccol said. Starbucks later confirmed that not all of these mobile order-only stores will close, and some will be converted into traditional coffee shops. 'We plan to complete an evaluation of our North America stores to ensure we have the right coffeehouses and the right ability to deliver the Starbucks experience,' Niccol said during Tuesday's earnings call. 'We found the [mobile order and pickup] format to be overly transactional and lacking the warmth and human connection that defines our brand. We have a strong digital offering and believe we can deliver the same level of convenience through our community coffee houses with a superior mobile order and pay experience.' Focusing on in-person human connection is the goal of Green Apron Service — the new operations model Starbucks just announced in conjunction with third-quarter earnings. Green Apron Service is underway and includes changes that have already been implemented like bringing back handwritten names and notes on cups. Starbucks will begin fully scaling the new service model to company-owned stores in August. 'Green Apron Service starts with five key moments, including craft and connection, that define the experience we want every customer to have every time they visit,' Niccol said. 'It is enabled by an evolved staffing model, which includes adjustments to roster size, labor hours, peak coverage, and deployment.' Calling it, 'a different kind of service experience,' Niccol said that in stores where the service model has already been piloted, there have been noticeable improvements in transactions, sales, and customer service times. Starbucks is simultaneously rolling out 'Smart Queue' technology, an advanced order sequencing algorithm that is designed to ensure consistent and timely service in Starbucks stores across channels. This new algorithmic approach has led to a 'double-digit improvement in café orders handed off in under four minutes, with 80% of in-cafe orders now meeting that target,' Niccol added. With the focus on improving both service times and in-café experiences, Niccol implied that mobile order and pickup-only stores are not needed anymore since cafes should meet all consumer needs, including customers in a hurry. 'The cafes we operate should be warm and welcoming and provide a place for customers to connect and gather,' he said. 'They should have a great seat for any occasion, and they should provide customers a high-quality mobile order and pay experience.' Contact Joanna at
