Botulism risk: Coffee manufacturer recalls extensive list

Products from coffee manufacturer, Snapchill, LLC are being recalled as they may be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum—the bacteria that causes Botulism or botulinum toxin.

The FDA requires low-acid canned food manufacturers, like Snapchill, to report their process, as the bacteria thrives in low-oxygen, low-acid environments like canned foods.

According to the US Food and Drug Administration, none was on file for Snapchill, LLC.

When the company was notified, it was found their current process could lead to the growth and production of the dangerous bacteria.

The products were distributed across the US and available online.

You will see the words “Produced and distributed by Snapchill LLC” below the nutrition facts or “Snapchill Coffee” on the label of affected products. They are in metal cans ranging in size from 7oz to 12 oz.
