Trader Joe's has recalled about 653,000 Mango Tangerine Scented Candles because the flame can spread from the wick to the wax, creating an unexpectedly large fire. These 5.7-ounce candles feature white wax and a cotton wick in a tin container and were sold exclusively in June 2024. There have been 14 reports of high flames, including three incidents of minor property damage and two reports of minor burns. Consumers should stop using the candles immediately and can return them for a full refund or a gift card.
