Walmart and Other Grocery Stores Sold This Potentially Dangerous Kid’s Drink — Eat This Not That

Parents, beware: Walmart and other grocery stores have been selling a kid’s drink that could potentially be dangerous. The drink in question is called “Fruit Shoot,” and it’s a popular brand of juice boxes marketed to children. However, the drink has been found to contain high levels of sugar and caffeine, which can be dangerous for young children.

The drink is made by Britvic, a British beverage company, and is sold in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. It comes in a variety of flavors, including orange, apple, and blackcurrant. Each box contains 10 juice boxes, and each juice box contains 10 milligrams of caffeine and 11 grams of sugar.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children under the age of 12 should not consume more than 45 milligrams of caffeine per day. That means that just one box of Fruit Shoot could exceed the recommended daily limit for children. Additionally, the World Health Organization recommends that children should consume no more than 25 grams of sugar per day. That means that just one box of Fruit Shoot could exceed the recommended daily limit for sugar.

The American Academy of Pediatrics also recommends that children should not consume any energy drinks, which are drinks that contain high levels of caffeine and sugar. Fruit Shoot is not an energy drink, but it does contain high levels of both caffeine and sugar, which could be potentially dangerous for young children.

If you’re looking for a healthier alternative for your children, there are plenty of options available. You can opt for water, milk, or 100% fruit juice. You can also look for drinks that are low in sugar and caffeine, such as herbal teas or sparkling water.

It’s important to be aware of what your children are consuming, and to make sure that they are not consuming anything that could potentially be dangerous. If you’re looking for a kid’s drink, make sure to opt for something that is low in sugar and caffeine.

It’s the tail end of summer before school starts back up and that means long days for kids playing outside until the sun goes down. And when they’re finally coming back in to grab something to drinknothing looks more refreshing than a squeezable Capri Sun.

Only now there is a chance that one of those iconic pouches may be contaminated with cleaning fluid.

Kraft Heinz is recalling over 5,700 cases of Capri Sun Wild Cherry Flavored Juice Drink Blend pouches. The company has said that only one flavor is included in the drinks it suspects were tainted with the cleaning solution. It said it was first alerted to the issue when consumers started reporting that it tasted off. 

Kraft released a statement about the incident saying that the cleaning solution is used on “food processing equipment,” and “was inadvertently introduced into a production line at one of (the) factories.”

No stores are listed by the company as having sold the contaminated pouches, but Walmart had the recall on its website.

If you’re concerned you may have bought one of the affected Capri Sun products, Kraft has stated that it will have the “Best When Used By” date of 6/25/23 on cases, and a UPC of 876840040900. You can also visit the company’s website for more information.

So far, there have not been any serious reactions reported regarding consuming the product. However, Kraft Heinz urges anyone who may have bought the Capri Sun drinks to throw them away immediately.

And it’s not just popular juice pouches that grocery shoppers should be leery of. As of August 14, Home Run Inn Frozen Foods is recalled about 13,099 pounds of its Chicago’s Premium Pizzeria Deluxe Sausage Classic Pizza due to metal pieces being found in the product—which is one extra topping you’re not going to want to eat.
