Organic fruit puree pouches recalled because of plastic pieces

PT Organics Limited of Lake Oswego, OR, is recalling Pumpkin Tree Peter Rabbit Organics Banana & Strawberry 4-ounce pouches because of an internal packaging defect that may result in the presence of a strand of soft, food-grade plastic in the finished product.

The recalled product was sold exclusively through Kroger, Meijer and Target retail stores nationwide between March 6 and July 13.

The recalled pouches can be identified by the following codes, which are stamped in black ink on the back of the pouch:

  • Barcode: 8 15367 01078 0
  • Lane number – identified by the number 4 printed on the rear right-hand side seam
  • Best-Before-Date (BBD) of 01/19/2027, 01/20/2027, 03/17/2027, 03/18/2027, 05/14/2027, or 05/15/2027.

No injuries have been reported.

PT Organics Limited initiated this recall after its packaging supplier last week recalled a production run of defective pouches. PT Organics’ inspections of finished product made with the recalled packaging confirmed the presence of a strand of a soft, food-grade plastic attached to the inside of a small number of pouches.
