Thousands of Capri Suns were recalled for possible contamination. 

Thanks to a few of our fabulous Hip2Save readers, we just found out that Kraft Heinz has announced their popular juice pouches might have been contaminated! The onlinepany has issued an official recall of almost 5,800 Capri Suns.

It seems a cleaning solution at one of their plants could have possibly tainted their products. The cleaning solution, used to clean food processing equipment, may have inadvertently onlinee into contact with the beverage.

Kraft Heinz decided to voluntarily recall the product after confused customers onlineplained about the taste of the juice. At this time, the onlinepany has not mentioned reports of injuries. Fortunately, only one flavor – Wild Cherry – is impacted.

 What do you do if you bought a contaminated product?

    Amazon just had this flavor deeply discounted. We ordered some. Wonder if they knew. Also wonder if they will ship recalled product.

      Hey Anna! You might reach out to Amazon’s customer service about your order, if it happens to be impacted by this recall, to determine the next steps. Hoping this is helpful! 💗

      The Amazon one I purchased at discount is Roaring Waters Wild Cherry Waterfall. I don’t see that on the recall but I don’t think we will know for sure until we receive the order. Because the order hasn’t shipped you could go in and cancel it.
