Capri Sun recalls over 230,000 drink pouches due to possible contamination

Kraft Heinz is announcing a voluntary recall of thousands of cases of Capri Sun, stating that the super popular drink pouches might be contaminated with cleaning solution.

“The voluntary recall comes after diluted cleaning solution, which is used on food processing equipment, was inadvertently introduced into a production line at one of our factories,” the company says in a statement. “Only the Wild Cherry flavored Capri Sun products with the case/package information below are affected.”

The Capri Sun recall affects about 5,760 cases of the drink. Each case consists of four cartons, which usually have 10 pouches, meaning more than 230,000 individual drink pouches could have been affected.

“The issue was discovered after we received several consumer complaints about the taste of the affected product. The Company is actively working with retail partners and distributors to remove potentially impacted product from circulation,” the company says.
