Funky Taste Prompts Capri Sun Recall

Kraft Heinz is recalling hundreds of circumstances of Capri Sun after revealing that they had been contaminated with diluted cleansing resolution. The recall particularly impacts Wild Cherry flavored Capri Sun with a “Best When Used By” date of June 25, 2023.

Stop packing your little one’s college lunches and double examine that that Wild Cherry Capri Sun doesn’t have cleansing resolution in it. Kraft Heinz lately introduced the voluntary recall of 5,760 circumstances of Wild Cherry flavored Capri Sun. The firm additional defined in a press launch that the diluted cleansing resolution is used to wash meals processing gear, and will have contaminated these circumstances after it was inadvertently launched into manufacturing of the beverage. Kraft Heinz says that they found the difficulty upon receiving buyer complaints concerning the style of the Capri Sun.

Kraft Heinz didn’t instantly reply to Gizmodo’s request for touch upon the recall.

The firm’s press launch says that every “case” of Capri Sun contains 4 cartons of juice pouches. A typical Capri Sun carton has 10, 6 fluid ounce pouches of juice, that means there are at the least 230,400 pouches of probably contaminated Capri Sun on the market (some cartons might have upwards of 30 pouches). Kraft Heinz Consumer Center’s automated customer support line—1-800-280-8252—says that no different flavors of Capri Sun had been affected by the cleansing resolution, which is nice information for all you Mountain Cooler and Fruit Punch followers. The firm says that any customers which have bought the recalled juice can return it to the shop it was bought at or contact Kraft Heinz itself for reimbursement.

There’s no clear indication of what sort of cleansing resolution was accountable for the contamination, and aside from a cool style, no main accidents have been reported.
