Popular coffee pods recalled over potential ink contamination
The recall, classified as Class III by the US Food and Drug Administration, is due to an inconsistent clear coat seal on the pods' lids, causing food-safe ink to run during brewing.
Affected products are 10-count boxes with a Best by Date of May 8, 2026, and lot code 251749, sold nationwide at major retailers including Target and Walmart.
Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, consumers are advised to dispose of the contaminated pods or return them to the place of purchase.
A company spokesperson stated the issue was isolated and posed no health risk, assuring that steps have been taken to refine their production process.

Urgent recall issued for cookie sold at Target
A major recall has been issued for packs of Favorite Day Bakery Frosted Sugar Cookies sold at Target after fears they could contain pieces of wood. Give and Go pulled the treats on July 22, affecting 803 cases — more than 12,000 cookies — shipped to three distribution centers in Ohio, Connecticut and Maryland. The products, sold in 10-packs with Lot number 251915, were sent to Target stores in 21 states , including New York, Massachusetts, Michigan and Virginia. The Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) said it was a 'Class II' recall — initiated when products could cause temporary or medically reversible health effects. Target has yanked all affected packs from shelves and its website, urging shoppers to toss them or contact customer service for a refund. It's unclear if any consumers reported seeing wood in their cookies. The recall follows a string of food safety scares. Ada Valley Meat Company pulled more than 1,000 pounds of cooked ground beef over fears of metal contamination. Meanwhile, nearly 18,000 tubs of Blue Bunny and Halo Top ice cream were recalled after plastic pieces were found inside. Summer essentials have also been recalled over the last few months. A recall was issued for 192,000 KidKraft Farm to Table play kitchens on July 31 because they are a strangulation risk to kids. Regulators found the product caused the death of a 23-month-old in Oregon two years ago. More than 3.6 million hoses were recalled earlier that month following 222 reports of hoses bursting, causing 29 injuries — including bruises, two sprained bones and five cases of temporary hearing loss. Meanwhile, five million above-ground swimming pools were recalled after a design flaw was linked to nine child drownings.
