Jarritos Coconut Water Recalled
On November 4, 2024, Tipp Distributors, Inc. issued a recall all lot codes of Jarritos Coconut Water (17.5 fl oz cans) because the airtight seal on the lid of the cans may be compromised. This could potentially allow cans to leak or become susceptible to bacterial growth of illness-causing bacteria, such as Clostridium botulinum
(See ConsumerLab’s Coconut Waters Review for tests of related products.)
Clostridium botulinum is bacterium that can cause botulism, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning. Symptoms include general weakness, muscle weakness, dizziness, double-vision, abdominal tension, constipation, trouble with speaking or swallowing and difficulty in breathing. People experiencing these symptoms should seek immediate medical attention. It can lead to life-threatening paralysis of breathing muscles requiring support with a breathing machine (ventilator) and intensive care.
The recall includes 169,438 cases of Jarritos Coconut Water, which were distributed in the US including the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
Tipp Distributors, Inc. is notifying consignees or the public of the recall by email.
