Snapchill Recalls All Cold Brew Cans Due to Toxic Growth Risk

The recent recall of all unexpired products by Wisconsin-based canned cold brew manufacturer Snapchill has sent shockwaves through the coffee industry. The recall was issued due to the potential growth risk of a toxic bacterium, clostridium botulinum, which can cause botulism. While no illnesses have been reported, the company is taking proactive measures to ensure consumer safety.

Snapchill, known for producing branded cold brew cans for coffee roasting companies, has distributed its products nationwide through roasters and direct sales. The issue was brought to light when the FDA notified Snapchill that their production process was not in compliance with regulations.

This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of food safety regulations, especially when it comes to low-acid canned foods like cold brew. The National Coffee Association has guidelines in place for manufacturers to follow, and it is crucial for companies to adhere to these standards to prevent any health risks.

Snapchill’s quick response to the situation and their commitment to rectifying the issue is commendable. As consumers, it’s essential to stay informed about product recalls and take necessary precautions if you have purchased any affected products.

In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns about the recall, you can reach out to Snapchill for more information. Stay safe and informed, coffee lovers!
