Federal regulation and inspection of processing facilities is essential to consumer health and safety – recently we posted about a voluntary recall of items from Snapchill Coffee LLC due to improper processing; there is now yet another company issuing a voluntary recall for improper processing of their products. Urban Spirits LLC produces drink mixers, spritzes, and syrups which are all under recall for being under processed in an unlicensed and uninspected facility. Consumption of these products can pose serious risks to health and safety, with one of the biggest concerns being botulism.
There are no currently reported cases of illness due to these products, but both the company and FDA are urging people to return products for refunds and to not consume them. For more about the recall, and for a full list of products, head over to the FDA link below:
