Over 5,700 cases of Capri Sun juice pouches recalled due to possible cleaning solution contamination

US

More than 5,700 cases of Capri Sun’s wild cherry flavored juice pouches are being voluntarily recalled due to possible contamination with cleaning solution, Kraft Heinz announced Monday.

“Diluted cleaning solution, which is used on food processing equipment, was inadvertently introduced into a production line at one of our factories,” the company said in a statement, adding that only specific wild cherry flavored Capri Sun products sold in the United States were affected. A spokesperson for the company told CBS News “there is no risk of a serious health issue.”

Kraft Heinz said it discovered the problem after receiving “several consumer complaints” about the taste.

The affected items all have a “Best When Used By” date of June 25, 2023. The manufacturer code on the individual pouches is between 0733-0900 and the manufacturer code on the cartons the pouches are sold in is between 0733-1000, the company said.

Customers who purchased items that fit these criteria can return them to the store where they were purchased.

In a statement provided to CBS News, a company spokesperson said Capri Sun products sold in other countries were not affected:

“This is happening in the United States only and there is no risk of a serious health issue. Capri-Sun’s produced in other markets are made by a different manufacturer and are not impacted by the US recall in any way. At Capri-Sun, we’re committed, as always to a high standard of quality, as the safety of our consumers is paramount. If anyone does have concerns over their product, we encourage them to contact the relevant customer support line in their country of purchase, which can be found on the back of their Capri-Sun products.”
