Walker's Wine Juice LLC is recalling its pumpkin juice because it may be contaminated with Botulism. The product was distributed via Walker's Wine Juice retail store in NY. The juice was also distributed directly by Walker's to a limited number of commercial wineries in the following states: IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MI, MN, NJ, NY, OH, PA, and WI. The potential contamination was discovered after an inspection by New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets Food Inspectors found that the pumpkin juice pH was too high to be processed per Walker's "hot fill" schedule process. As a result, it was determined that no adequate kill step was used to address the possibility of microbiological hazards.Products can be identified as follows:
- 2.5-gallon bag in box and 5-gallon hot pack are labeled "pumpkin"; All lots are subject to the recall
- 30-, 60-, and 275-gallon bulk containers are tagged "pumpkin"; All lots are subject to the recall
Consumers are urged to contact Walker's Wine Juice to determine other appropriate steps including a calculation of reimbursement.
