This claim is TRUE:

The article was published on the People Magazine website. It mentions 6 brands of soup, including a list of the contaminated soups. If you go to the official FSIS website, you can find the same health notice, including a list of the same soups and indeed 6 brands.

The FSIS website is an official government website, and the People article didn’t change any of the information in the health notice.

This claim from People's Magazine lines up with the published article on the FSIS webpage. They made the announcement "..(FSIS) is issuing a public health alert for various soup and bowl products that may be contaminated with foreign material, specifically wood, in an FDA-regulated ingredient, cilantro." The People Magazine relays this information and how it is advised to not eat or serve these products. They also list the affected soup brands with the sell by dates which appear to be directly from the FSIS announcement.

True
