1. Starbucks Bottled Vanilla Frappuccino Drinks
Starbucks fans and Frappuccino lovers, take note! The chain’s bottled, vanilla-flavored coffee beverages are currently being recalled. PepsiCo, the distributor of Starbucks’ vanilla-flavored Frappuccino drinks, is recalling more than 300,000 of these bottled beverages over fears that they might have loose pieces of glass inside.
The FDA notes that this is a Class II recall, which means that it is “a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
As CNN reports, the drinks are “13.7-ounce Vanilla Frappuccinos with UPC number 0 12000-81331 3.” Expiration dates are March 8th, May 29th, June 4th and 10th, according to the US Food and Drug Administration.
The FDA indicates that the recall started on January 28th, and is still ongoing. In a statement from PepsiCo on behalf of the North American Coffee Partnership (its organization with Starbucks), the company noted that these items are being removed from the marketplace.
2. Rao's Chicken & Gnocchi Soup
Rao's Chicken & Gnocchi soup is currently being recalled, and anyone with an egg allergy should take note! On January 27th, Rao's parent company, Sovos Brands Intermediate, Inc., issued a voluntary recall of the brand's Chicken & Gnocchi Soup since some of the jars might actually contain Rao's Vegetable Minestrone Soup, which includes egg as an ingredient. The product's mislabeling could create a serious risk for those with an egg allergy or severe sensitivity.
According to the FDA's notice, "The product is packaged in a 16-ounce, clear glass jar marked with the following code date printed on the top of the jar: Best By NOV 15 2024 EST 251 Code Date 2320 MDV 046030Z009, UPC 747479400015." In addition, these soups were distributed to retail stores in 32 states between December 8, 2022, and January 27, 2023.
3. Kirkland Signature Cold Brew Coffee
Another coffee product that may be contaminated is the canned Kirkand Signature Cold Brew. Costco shared a notice on February 17th from Berner Food & Beverage. The company announced that they and the FDA are recalling specific code dates of the product because bolts may be found in the cans.
The recall, as Eat This, Not That reports, applies to item number 4165758, which was sold between November 5, 2022 and February 10, 2023. The products have "Best If Used By" dates between Oct. 19, 2023 and October 27, 2023.
Reckitt, the formula manufacturer, recalled two batches of ProSobee's Simply Plant-Based Infant Formula on February 19th because of potential cross-contamination with the bacteria Cronobacter sakazakii.
As noted within the company's news release, all of the products went through "extensive testing" and tested negative for the bacteria, so the recall is being initiated "out of an abundance of caution."
The recall applies to approximately 145,000 cans of infant formula distributed across the U.S., Guam, and Puerto Rico. The 12.9-ounce formula cans were manufactured between August 2022 and September 2022, have the batch codes of ZL2HZF or ZL2HZZ, and display a "Use By" date of March 1, 2024 and a UPC code 300871214415.
Reckitt stressed that the issue "was linked to material from a third party" and the company "is no longer sourcing this material from the supplier."
