Check Your Pantry ASAP For Recalled ‘Capri Sun’ Pouches

Author Sammi Reeves

I practically lived off of Capri Sun juice pouches as a kid. Strawberry kiwi flavored juice coursed through my veins on the daily. You could say I was dependent. Enjoying a Capri Sun was nearly an everyday affair.

While many kids today are missing out on some childhood favorites of mine, I’ve always been thrilled that Capri Suns still remained a popular choice of refreshment among today’s youth. However, parents need to check their pantries and refrigerators IMMEDIATELY following a recent announcement about our beloved fruity drink.

According to News 3, “Kraft Heinz has recalled 5,760 cases of Capri Sun which they say might be contaminated with a cleaning solution used at one of their production plants. The “Best When Used By” date on the products is June 25, 2023.” I don’t understand how a cleaning solution… ends up inside thousands of juice pouches by mistake? I wish I could wrap my head around this one, but this extends past the point of ridiculousness that my brain can comprehend.

If you’re a Capri Sun customer, you can return any problematic cases matching the details below to your point of purchase for refunds.

  • Product Size: 6.6 fl oz
  • Name of Product: Capri Sun Wild Cherry Flavored Juice Drink Blend
  • Packaging Description: Individual foil pouches packed in paperboard cartons. Note: Cases shipped to retailers include 4 cartons that are shrink-wrapped together. Product is sold by the carton at retail.
  • Manufacturer Code on Pouch: 25JUN2023, WXX LYY #### Note: #### would be between 0733-0900 for product affected by this issue. XX may be 01, 02, 03, 04, 09, or 10. YY may be 01 through 12.
  • Manufacturer Code on Carton: 25JUN2023 WXX #### CT1404. Note: #### would be between 0733-1000 for product affected by this issue. XX may be 01, 02, or 03.
  • Carton UPC: 0 8768400100 4
  • Case UPC: 87684 00409 00

Will you be purchasing Capri Suns after this major fiasco? I think my days of enjoying my favorite strawberry kiwi flavored juice might’ve come to an end. Scary!!!

17 Home Remedies That (May Or May Not) Work

Walk down the aisle of your local drug store, or watch any television commercial break, and you’re bound to see a pill, cream or shot that will cure whatever ails you. But your grandparents and parents know differently.

Every family has home remedies that are handed down from generation to generation that avoid the medicine cabinet altogether and have us scouring the house for alternatives. From unconventional uses of garlic and aspirin to the weird like urine and breast milk, we asked listeners and scoured the net for some of these home remedies.

Before you read, please know: we haven’t tested most of these and don’t suggest you do. But… it’s interesting what some people are up to out there to feel better!

  • Use Garlic to cure Athlete's Foot Fungus

    If your feet are getting a bit gangly due to Athete’s Foot, maybe try garlic. Some say the home remedy actually works, but be careful. Some report that using sliced garlic directly on the foot could result in burns. A garlic solution may be a safer alternative. Or, you know, save it for the next Italian night at the house.

  • Cure Foot Odor with Vodka

    Let’s say you just put garlic all over your feet, and you want to do something about it, perhaps try Vodka. Turns out the Russian specialty can eject the offensive scents from your feet. Rubbing alcohol should work too, but per ounce, depending what brand you get, the Vodka could be less.

  • Cure Hiccups with Sugar (or Orange Juice?)

    A spoonful of sugar might help the medicine go down. It can also help your hiccups go away. A study from “back in the day” had nearly all hiccupping subjects stop after taking a spoon of the sweet stuff. Shawn’s kid swears that orange juice helps him stop hiccupping. So, if you’re down for taking a 5 year old’s advice, have at it.

  • Use Olives or Lemons to Help with Motion Sickness

    Starting to get a bit nauseous? Pop an olive. Turns out there’s something in those olives called “tannins” that can dry your mouth of the excess saliva you get during a bout with motion sickness. No olives? Suck on a lemon. You’ll look silly, your eyes will squint for minutes, but at least you’ll be done with the queasiness.

  • Duct Tape Can Remove Warts

    We’ve googled it, and legit sources seem to agree: duct tape can remove a wart as good as any cream. Just apply the duct tape to the wart for a while (talking days potentially), then remove, exfoliate, and reapply duct tape. Rinse and repeat til your wart is a distant memory.

  • Got A Headache? Put A Pencil In Your Mouth

    It sounds foolish, but many subscribe to it. If a headache is bothering you, try putting a pencil in your mouth (not down your throat) and hold it gently with your teeth. Don’t chew. Just holding it will release some tension and hopefully give you relief.

  • Another Headache Remedy? Watermelon Juice

    No Ticonderoga number 2’s around? Try drinking some watermelon juice to ease your headache. But DON’T eat watermelon if you’re prone to migranes. That can actually trigger them.

  • Use Aspirin for Dandruff

    Now that we aren’t using aspirin for our headache (we have pencils and watermelon juice now), maybe you should crush it up to cure your dandruff. It has the same active ingredient as the dandruff shampoos you see. Just take a tablespoon of the aspirin dust, mix it with your shampoo and leave it in for a bit before you rinse. It’s probably way more expensive, but think about how impressed your friends will be!

  • Garlic Juice Relieves Ear Infection Pain

    We… don’t know how we feel about this, but garlic (as you’ve seen) has some powerful uses. It could work. If your ear infection is actually a busted eardrum, don’t use this.

  • Yogurt for Bad Breath

    Turns out yogurt isn’t just good for your digestive system. It can also do wonders to kick your stanky breath. The live bacteria in yogurt can beat down the bad breath bacteria. Jamie Lee Curtis must have amazing breath.

  • Use Breast Milk For... Everything

    This list was given to us at the hospital by the nurse, and many swear to the power of breast milk. From acne to the flu, constipation to bee stings and more, a little breast milk can go a long way. We just don’t know how your teen will react to running around trying to put breast milk on their pimply face.

  • LISTENER SUGGESTED: Rub Vicks On Your Feet To Stop Coughing

    This texter swears this works, and they are not alone. A lot of people say it works for them too. But experts are dubious. Worst case scenario, your socks smell better.

  • LISTENER SUGGESTED: White Toothpaste For Burns

    This is another oft-Googled remedy. Just take the plain Jane white toothpaste to a minor burn and you’ll be feeling better in no-time. But Colgate, who has every reason to want to sell more toothpaste, doesn’t suggest it.

  • LISTENER SUGGESTED: Use Cow Poop As Moisturizer To Cure Acne

    There are scores of people that swear to the power of cow poo. We know it’s pungent, but it could give you clearer skin! Clearer, stinkier skin.

  • LISTENER SUGGESTED: Pee On A Sea Urchin Sting

    While our listener Bacos swears by it, turns out peeing on Sea Urchin stings, and Jellyfish stings for that matter, doesn’t work according to experts. But… hey… if you gotta go and you got a sting… it’s your pee.

  • LISTENER SUGGESTED: Bit Of Ivory Soap In A Baby's Butt For Constipation

    Bacos hit us with this one as well, and swears by it! He’s not alone! Others say it works, but we see more raised eyebrows than thumbs ups.

  • LISTENER SUGGESTED: Use Onion On Foot To Cure A Fever

    We got this from more than a couple listeners, and while they swear by it, others say it’s a placebo effect. Worse comes to worse, you have an onion on your foot and look silly.
