Coffee company Snapchill has voluntarily recalled all of its canned coffee products in the United States after discovering that their current manufacturing process could potentially lead to the production of a deadly toxin. Although there have been no reported instances of the toxin in the products or customers falling ill, Snapchill is taking precautionary measures to ensure the safety of its consumers.
The botulinum toxin, which can cause botulism, a rare but potentially fatal disease, was discovered by Snapchill after being alerted by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that they had not properly filed details of their manufacturing process as required by regulations. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that the botulinum toxin is extremely dangerous, inhibiting nerve function and causing respiratory and muscular paralysis.
Snapchill is currently working on submitting the appropriate notifications to the FDA and actively trying to resolve the issue. The company has apologized for any inconvenience or concern that the recall may have caused and is collaborating with the FDA to restart production while meeting all standards.
The company distributed its products nationwide through coffee roasters, retail outlets, and its website. Consumers are advised to either dispose of the products or return them to Snapchill or the place of purchase for a refund as instructed on
