More than 380,000 fruit pouches are being recalled nationwide over concerns they may contain soft strands of plastic in the purée. Get unlimited access to ad-free articles and exclusive content. PT Organics said in a statement last week it traced the issue to an internal packaging defect, that could cause thin strands of food-grade plastic from the lining of the pouch to end up in the product when squeezed.
The affected products, Pumpkin Tree Peter Rabbit Organics Banana & Strawberry 4 oz. (113 g) pouches, were sold exclusively at Kroger, Meijer, and Target stores nationwide between March 6 and July 13, 2026. The FDA recall announcement on Tuesday is urging customers to check their products against the barcode, lane number, and best-before-dates printed on the back of the pouch.
