High Noon recall warns Celsius energy drinks were ‘inadvertently filled' with vodka
High Noon, the alcohol brand specializing in hard seltzer drinks made with vodka and fruit juice, announced a recall of some of its variety packs because they contain Celsius energy drinks that the company says were 'inadvertently filled' with alcohol.
According to a notice posted on the Food & Drug Administration's website on Wednesday, High Noon is recalling two lots of 'High Noon Beach Variety' 12-packs with cans of vodka drinks that were mislabeled as 'Celsius Astro Vibe, Sparkling Blue Razz Edition.'
'Consumption of the liquid in these cans will result in unintentional alcohol ingestion,' the company said, adding that 'no illnesses or adverse events have been reported.'
It's unclear exactly how many cans were mislabeled. The recall was initiated after the company 'discovered that a shared packaging supplier mistakenly shipped empty Celsius cans to High Noon.'
The 12-packs with the erroneously labeled cans were shipped to retailers in Florida, New York, Ohio, South Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin from July 21 to July 23.
The affected Celsius cans will have a silver lid instead of a black lid, the company said. Consumers are advised to dispose of them and 'not consume the liquid.'
Customers are also encouraged to contact High Noon's consumer relations department for more information on the recall, including refunds.

Check on older adults, those living alone and other at-risk people in-person or on the phone multiple times a day. Watch for the early signs of heat exhaustion in yourself and others. Signs may include headache, nausea, dizziness, thirst, dark urine and intense fatigue. Stop your activity and drink water. Heat stroke is a medical emergency! Call 9-1-1 or your emergency health provider if you, or someone around you, is showing signs of heat stroke which can include red and hot skin, dizziness, nausea, confusion and change in consciousness. While you wait for medical attention, try to cool the person by moving them to a cool place, removing extra clothing, applying cold water or ice packs around the body. Drink water often and before you feel thirsty to replace fluids. Close blinds, or shades and open windows if outside is cooler than inside. Turn on air conditioning, use a fan, or move to a cooler area of your living space. If your living space is hot, move to a cool public space such as a cooling centre, community centre, library or shaded park. Follow the advice of your region's public health authority. Plan and schedule outdoor activities during the coolest parts of the day. Limit direct exposure to the sun and heat. Wear lightweight, light-coloured, loose-fitting clothing and a wide-brimmed hat. Never leave people, especially children, or pets inside a parked vehicle. Check the vehicle before locking to make sure no one is left behind. Multi-day heat event continues. What: Daytime highs of 32 to 35 degrees Celsius, with humidex values of 37 to 42. Overnight lows of 20 to 23 degrees Celsius. When: Continuing through Tuesday or possibly Wednesday for some areas. Additional information: A cooler air mass is expected to arrive Tuesday night, bringing an end to this heat event. There is the possibility that eastern Ontario and the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area could see hot and humid conditions continue into Wednesday. Hot and humid air can also bring deteriorating air quality and can result in the Air Quality Health Index approaching the high risk category. ### Heat warnings are issued when very high temperature or humidity conditions are expected to pose an elevated risk of heat illnesses, such as heat stroke or heat exhaustion.

Chocolate Recall Sparks Nationwide Warning to Customers
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Neuhaus Chocolates NV is recalling their Belgian Chocolate Moments Smurfs 'Popping Milk Chocolates with Cookies because the product contains wheat which was not declared on the packaging. Newsweek reached out to the company via email Monday for comment. Why It Matters Numerous recalls have been initiated this year due to the potential for damaged products, foodborne illness, contamination and undeclared food allergens. Millions of Americans experience food sensitivities or allergies every year. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the nine "major" food allergens in the U.S. are eggs, milk, fish, wheat, soybeans, Crustacean shellfish, sesame, tree nuts and peanuts. People with a wheat allergy could experience a "serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products," the FDA warns. What To Know Neuhaus Chocolate can be seen related to a recall in August 2025. (Photo from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) Neuhaus Chocolate can be seen related to a recall in August 2025. (Photo from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) In the alert, the FDA says the recalled chocolates were distributed from July 21, 2025, until August 4, 2025, by Neuhaus stores in Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington, D.C. and via their online store. The impacted batch numbers are 80108690 and 80108763 with a best use before date of January 13, 2026, the FDA alert says. There have been no reports of illnesses related to this recall and 150 units of the impacted products were sold, the FDA says. What People Are Saying The FDA in their alert in part: "The action was initiated after it was discovered during an internal check that product containing wheat was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of wheat. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by an exceptional combination of circumstances in which the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) did not include the allergen on the packaging." In an email to Newsweek in January, the FDA said: "Most recalls in the U.S. are carried out voluntarily by the product manufacturer and when a company issues a public warning, typically via news release, to inform the public of a voluntary product recall; the FDA shares that release on our website as a public service. "The FDA's role during a voluntary, firm-initiated, recall is to review the recall strategy, evaluate the health hazard presented by the product, monitor the recall, and as appropriate alert the public and other companies in the supply chain about the recall. "The FDA provides public access to information on recalls by posting a listing of recalls according to their classification in the FDA Enforcement Report, including the specific action taken by the recalling company. The FDA Enforcement Report is designed to provide a public listing of products in the marketplace that are being recalled." Additional information on recalls can be found via the FDA's Recalls, Market Withdrawals, & Safety Alerts. What Happens Next Customers who have purchased the recalled product who have a wheat allergy are asked to return it to the original place of purchase and not to consume it, the FDA says. People with additional questions may contact the company via phone at +32 2 568 23 00 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central European Summer Time on weekdays or via email at customercare@
