What's This Giant Mold Monster Melissa Found In A Capri Sun Pouch?
(Melissa)
Melissa found a nastiness in her pouch of Capri Sun, a nastiness even nastier than Capri Sun. A giant mold monster that grew inside the pouch after it was punctured slightly, perhaps? UPDATE: Kraft's Amusing Capri Sun Mold FAQ
After a couple of weeks of being non-responsive about the issue, Kraft said:
“We recently received word from a consumer about an issue with a Capri Sun pouch. We understand that some of you are concerned. Now that we’ve tested the material, we’ve confirmed it was mold. While unpleasant, it is not a safety issue. If this had been a safety issue, Kraft Foods certainly would have taken the necessary steps, including issuing a recall.The pix continue to get reposted all over the internets, which are not enthused by the images or Kraft's brushoff.As a general food safety tip, please remember that because Capri Sun beverages don’t have preservatives, a leaky pouch can cause the beverage to spoil and discarding it is the right action to take.
