Because of the potential for contamination, approximately 5,760 cases of Capri Sun Wild Cherry beverages have been removed from store shelves.
In a statement issued by the company, Kraft Heinz explained that a cleaning solution used to disinfect the machinery used in food processing was “inadvertently introduced into a production line at one of our factories.”
Following “many customer complaints” over the flavor of the items, the issue was located and resolved.
The corporation does not disclose the total number of pouches that have been requested for return. On the other hand, inside of each case are four cartons, and inside of each carton are ten pouches. This indicates that approximately 230,000 pouches might be affected in some way.
Find out if the Capri Sun you bought has been recalled by following these steps: Check the “Best When Used By” date of June 25, 2023, which should be printed on each 6.6-ounce packet. The company Kraft (KHC) has stated that it is “actively working” with retailers to remove the “possibly impacted product” off the market.
A spokesman of the firm stated that “at Capri-Sun, we are always committed to a high standard of quality because the safety of our customers is our top priority,” and went on to say that the affected pouches were only available for purchase in the United States.
Customers who already possess the item are welcome to bring it back to the store to exchange it for another. Kraft warned them that they shouldn’t be drinking at that hour.

This past week, Home Run Inn Frozen Foods was forced to recall approximately 13,000 pounds of frozen pizza because there was a possibility that it was tainted with metal.
The US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said in a statement Sunday that the pizza’s meat topping “may be contaminated with foreign materials, specifically metal.”
