Monk Fruit Recall Alert: FDA Says You Might Be Eating Stevia Instead originally appeared on Parade. A sweetener swap you didn't sign up for just got the FDA's second-highest risk warning. Bottles of monk fruit and stevia from NuNaturals, Inc. were accidentally mislabeled—meaning you might be spooning the wrong sweetener into your coffee. The company issued a voluntary nationwide recall on July 14, and the FDA officially classified it as a Class II recall on August 1. So, what actually happened? NEWS ALERT🚨: RECALL FOR ORGANIC FOODS…AGAIN!Recall for Organic Pure Stevia and Pure Monk Fruit Sweetener on July 14. The FDA later issued a Class II risk classification for the recall on August 1. — Norman Buntz (@normanbuntzhsb) August 7, 2025 In short: the labels got swapped.

The monk fruit version has UPC 7 39223 00187 6 (0.71 oz), and the stevia version has UPC 7 39223 00204 0 (1 oz).

In other words, it's not likely to be life-threatening, but it's still something to take seriously, especially if you have allergies. People who are sensitive to ragweed and related plants may also react to stevia—a risk flagged by Verywell Health. Monk fruit allergies are rare, but not impossible. The Independent notes that reactions can range from mild irritation to more serious issues like anaphylaxis. 💪 SIGN UP for tips to stay healthy & fit with the top moves, clean eats, health trends & more delivered right to your inbox twice a week 💪 This isn't the only label mix-up the FDA's flagged recently.
