Youngstown Grape Distributors, Inc. has recalled approximately 15,101 bottles of Happy Moose and Farmers Juice products because of a failure in the pasteurization process. Incomplete pasteurization means the juices may not have been heated sufficiently to eliminate potentially harmful bacteria. The recall affects five specific varieties — Tropical Roots, Strawberry Field, Focus Greens, Carrot Digest, and Watermelon Hydration — all packaged in 12 fl. oz. plastic bottles. No illnesses or injuries have been reported to date, and consumers should return the products for a refund or dispose of them immediately.
The incomplete pasteurization poses a risk that harmful pathogens may have survived in the juice, which could lead to foodborne illness if consumed.
