Learning that a product in your possession is subject to a recall is never exciting. And as inconvenient as it might be to throw said product out or return it for a refund, it's never worth risking your health for the sake of holding on to something potentially harmful.
This week, New Mexico Pinon Coffee announced a voluntary recall of its Single Serve Cups sold in 10-count boxes. The recall stems from a potential issue where food coloring may be introduced into the coffee during the brewing process—a concern that's especially relevant for shoppers who frequent Costco, Kroger, or Walmart.
