UK Watchdog Expands Jolly Rancher Recall, Orders Immediate Stop to Sales

The action follows tests detecting MOAH, a genotoxic contaminant linked to DNA damage.

Overview

  • The Food Standards Agency issued a fresh do not eat alert that adds Jolly Rancher Filled Pops and Freeze Dried Candy to the recall.
  • The recall spans multiple ranges including hard candy, Misfits and Berry gummies, and 2‑in‑1 hard candy across all pack sizes, batch codes and best‑before dates.
  • Businesses have been told to halt sales at once, withdraw affected stock and conduct recalls where items were sold.
  • Local enforcing authorities have been asked to remove remaining products from the market as some importers continue supplying them to the UK.
  • Hershey has already removed the products and stopped UK supply, while consumers are advised to dispose of purchases at home with no immediate cause for concern reported for past consumption.
