Capri Sun is working overtime to recall thousands of the popular juice pouches for possible contamination.
Kraft Heinz -- which manufactures the child-centric drink -- has issued an official recall of 5,760 cases of Capri Sun that they say might be contaminated with a cleaning solution used at one of their production plants, which could've gotten into the product.
According to KH ... the problematic batch in question is tied to their Wild Cherry flavor, and it's hard to tell where exactly the possibly contaminated cases might've gone.
Reports of consumers complaining about the taste supposedly prompted an investigation, so Kraft is pumping the brakes, and telling their customers to refrain from poking into any of the cherry Capri Suns for a bit, while they try to wrangle 'em in.
Kraft says *if* cleaning solution did make it in, it was totally inadvertent.
Customers can return any problematic cases to point of purchase for refunds.
Have in the not-so-far past.
Thanks for heads up, lots of parents in my family need to know this.
Never drink that awful concoction.
Cleaning fluid would only make it better...................
Wonder if they make it under another label. Have orange ads but under Spanish label.
I really wouldnt trust any flavor at the moment. If it could happen to one there might be others out there. I would at least taste test before letting the kid drink it. A hassle but might save them from having a problem.
If they don’t add cleaning solution, how are they supposed to keep the liquid from getting moldy after it has sat on the shelf for a year?
They came for our juice pouches and we said nothing. What next? Participation ribbons?
Can’t get the straw poked through anyway. So I’m safe.
Box of Cool-Aid pouches for the kiddo’s right now. Thanks for the head’s up, though!
They didn’t mention the cleaning solution, but I imagine it is caustic soda perhaps with dilute chlorine.
Agreed.

RECALL ALERT: Kraft Heinz has recalled 5,760 cases of Capri Sun which they say might be contaminated with a cleaning solution used at one of their production plants. The “Best When Used By” date on the products is June 25, 2023.
given the way the juice is bottled it would be very hard to INADVERTANTLY taint it with cleaning fluid.
In order to have enough to notice the taste it would have to be a large quantity.
So its possible it was done on purpose.
here is how some are manufactured. I can see what you mean

Sounds like Gates has been tampering with kids’ drinks now. A sure method to help de-populate the earth.
Will it cure covid?
