Overview

  • Danone U.S. voluntarily initiated the recall on July 11 after consumers reported transparent plastic fragments 7–25 mm long in the dome-shaped topping containers.
  • The recall covers every YoCrunch yogurt flavor and size sold at major U.S. retailers, with stores like Walmart, Target, and Dollar General removing affected products from shelves.
  • According to the FDA, the hazard is isolated to the separately packaged dome toppers and does not impact the yogurt itself.
  • The FDA’s recall alert lists specific lot numbers and expiration dates on its website for consumers to reference.
  • No injuries have been reported to date, and consumers are urged to discard the toppers and contact the YoCrunch Consumer Care Line at 1-877-344-4886 for refunds.
