Walmart has recalled nearly 10,000 cases of apple juice sold in stores across the U.S. that were found to contain potentially harmful levels of inorganic arsenic.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration gave the recall a more urgent classification Friday after making its original announcement Aug. 15. The new classification said the affected product may temporarily cause adverse health consequences but is unlikely to cause serious or irreversible medical issues.

Who drinks apple “juice?”
Apple seeds contain arsenic. Just sayin.
RFK, Jr. please pick up the red courtesy phone....
“Sam’s Best Arsenic-Flavored Apple ‘Juice’” should have been the tip-off.
People usually give it to babies and toddlers...............
Little kids drink apple juice.
No worries, just another Bioengineered food ingredient.
Except they specifically stated inorganic arsenic.
While something may be up with the industry, like a pesticide that's not processed out fully by the time of harvest, the inorganic arsenic can also be in the water added to the juice. There was a draft document in 2013 that made it to final form by 2023:

“Elevated arsenic”?! More than usual? I think apples have a tiny trace of arsenic in them as it is
I drink it on a regular basis.
Apple juice and "Bison" Vodka (1 part juice: 1 part vodka or 2:1) is particularly tasty.
I do !!!
People need to ask where the apples are grown.
Pesticides that have been illegal for farmers to use in the United States
are very permissible in foreign countries.
This has been going on for decades.
I have just about quit eating foods that are produced overseas.
I believe lima beans do also some foods even have nicotine in them life is a chemistry test.
Probably made from Chinese concentrate.....
I get it by the case.
A client of mine is with the main company behind Apple and Eve. Their quality assurance is tough, I trust that product. SUPER clean production.
elevated???
Are they saying that a little arsenic is okay? It is just the incremental elevation that is bad?
Arsenic accumulates in the body.
My understanding is that most apple juice comes from China.
Therefore it’s no surprise.
That said, since when is juice good for you anyways? Short of cranberry juice and it’s effect on bladder infections, one of the biggest lies that the food industry pushes is that juice is good for you.
