Reading this record

Five things about this record are not in the record itself, and each one changes how it should be read.

Class III means the FDA judged that the product was unlikely to cause harm but violated FDA labelling or manufacturing regulation. The class is assigned by an agency health hazard evaluation under 21 CFR 7.41, not by the firm.
The firm started this recall itself. Most FDA food recalls are voluntary, and a recall is a food safety plan working rather than failing. The circumstances in which the agency asks for one instead are set out in 21 CFR 7.45.
This record is the only one the FDA opened for its recall event, so it covers a single product code.
The recall ran for 6 weeks, from 7 December 2017 to termination on 19 January 2018. Termination means the agency judged that all reasonable effort had been made, under 21 CFR 7.55, and it says nothing about whether product remained in circulation.
The distribution pattern names 13 states, and the FDA published the enforcement report 3 weeks after the firm began the recall.
Recalls of a beverage or juice run a median of 6 months, so this one was shorter than usual for its category. Juice is the other food with its own HACCP regulation in the United States, 21 CFR part 120, which requires a treatment achieving a 5-log reduction of the pertinent pathogen, and unpasteurised juice recalls are almost always a failure of that step or an exemption misapplied.

Named in the distribution pattern: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Iowa, Illinois, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin. Those pages count recalls by where the RECALLING FIRM sits, which is a different question from where this product went.

Filed under beverages and juice. A product can sit in more than one.

All 2017 recalls · All FDA food recall data

Behind every recall is a clause somebody has to produce evidence for at their next audit. Krolda maps supplier documents to the clause they satisfy in FSSC 22000, IFS Food and 21 CFR 117, and routes the corrective action when the evidence is missing.

Early access

Recall records come from the openFDA food enforcement API, published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the public domain. Krolda adds the hazard classification and the clause mapping; neither is an FDA determination. Always check the FDA notice before acting on a recall.
