One of the strangest recalls I've seen yet was just released by The Kraft Heinz Company.  About 5,760 cases of their popular drink, Capri Sun, have been voluntarily recalled in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, and throughout the United States due to a cleaning solution in the juice.  Yes, if you don't pull this out of your kitchen pantry now, your child could end up drinking cleaning solution.  Gross!

After several complaints of Capri Sun's tasting wrong, the following recall announcement was made by The Kraft Heinz Company on August 12th, 2022:

The voluntary recall comes after diluted cleaning solution, which is used on food processing equipment, was inadvertently introduced into a production line at one of our factories. Only the Wild Cherry flavored Capri Sun products with the case/package information below are affected.
