Plum Organics Voluntarily Recalls Little Crèmes Organic Rice Milk Snacks Due to Potential Choking Hazard

EMERYVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Plum Organics is voluntarily recalling its Little Crèmes organic rice milk snacks line after it was found that the product has the potential to cause choking. The small, bite-sized snack pieces are made to soften in a child’s mouth in less than 20 seconds making them easy to swallow. Some pieces were found to take significantly longer than this, creating a potential choking hazard, particularly for babies and very young children.

The recall affects all Little Crèmes varieties:

• Super Purples (acai, blackberry & purple carrot),
• Super Reds (pomegranate, beet & berry), and
• Super Greens (kale, apple & sweet potato).
