A coffee creamer brand has recalled over 75,000 bottles due to complaints of spoilage and illness. Danone, the parent company of International Delight, initially issued a voluntary recall that was later upgraded by the FDA to a Class II recall. This classification indicates that using the affected products may lead to temporary health issues. The recall specifically targets two flavors: Hazelnut and Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon Roll, with expiration dates in July 2025.
• The total number of recalled bottles is 75,054, affecting shipments to 31 states.
• The spoilage issue is related to texture, but Danone assures that it is not a food safety concern.
• A similar recall occurred earlier this year for a lemonade brand due to a synthetic food dye linked to cancer risks.
• Both recalls have been classified as Class II by the FDA, highlighting potential temporary health risks.
This recall is significant as it emphasizes the importance of food quality and safety standards. Consumers rely on brands to provide safe products, and recalls can impact public trust. By addressing these issues promptly, companies can maintain transparency and ensure customer safety.
