Plum Organics is recalling its Little Cremes organic rice milk snacks line after it was found the product may have the potential to be a choking hazard. The small, bite-size snack pieces are supposed to soften in a child’s mouth in less than 20 seconds so they are easy to swallow. But some pieces took significantly longer than 20 seconds to soften, making them a potential choking hazard. There have been reports of injuries and complaints from consumers.
The recall affects all Little Cremes varieties, including Super Purples (acai, blackberry & purple carrot), Super Reds (pomegranate, beet & berry), and Super Greens (kale, apple & sweet potato). Baby Little Cremes Sweet Potato Kale Apple in 8 count containers has a unit UPC number of 846675000330, a case UPC number of 846675001559, and best by dates of 05AUG14 to 12AUG15. Baby Little Cremes Blackberry Acai in 8 ounce containers has a unit UPC number of 846675000347, a case UPC number of 846675001542, and best by dates of 05AUG14 to 12AUG15.
