All flavors and sizes of YoCrunch yogurt have been recalled in Colorado after reports of plastic pieces found in the product’s topping compartments, posing a potential choking hazard.
Danone U.S. issued the voluntary recall on July 11, following multiple consumer complaints about sharp, transparent plastic pieces discovered in the dome toppers that contain mix-ins like granola, M&Ms, Oreos, cookie dough, and other candies. The yogurt itself is not affected by the issue.
According to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, the recalled products were distributed nationwide. A full list of affected products and lot codes can be found on the FDA’s website.
“Danone is working swiftly with retail partners to remove the impacted product from shelves, while it works to address the issue and bring back the YoCrunch products so many people enjoy,” the company said in the recall notice.
Consumers are urged not to eat the recalled yogurt. For questions about refunds, contact the YoCrunch Consumer Care Line at 1-877-344-4866, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
