Kula Brands announces recall for Pina Colada + Kratom Seltzer due to allergy risk

Kula recall overview: 

• Who: Kula Brands is recalling its 12-ounce cans of Pina Colada + Kratom Seltzer.
• Why: The seltzer recall comes due to undeclared milk and tree nuts (coconut).
• Where: The recall is valid across the United States.

Kula Brands is recalling its 12-ounce cans of Pina Colada + Kratom Seltzer due to undeclared milk and tree nuts (coconut).

Those ingredients could cause health issues for those allergic to tree nuts or milk and are unaware of their presence because they are not included on the label.

Those who are allergic run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product, the Kula recall says.

The cans include a UPC code of 371334085880 and a lot number of U17831532PNCL.

Labeling issue came due to a breakdown in production and packaging processes, company says

Kula Brands says it has not received any reports of illness related to the recall so far. The company is not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes lead to class action lawsuits.

The seltzer recall issue occurred due to a temporary breakdown in the company’s production and packaging processes, the seltzer recall says. The cans can be returned to their place of purchase for a full refund.

Kula Brands can be reached at ​305-239-2288 between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. ET Monday through Saturday or via email at operations@kulacan.com. The company asks retailers or wholesalers who have received the product to immediately examine their inventory, isolate, and halt the sale of any affected product.

Another seltzer brand, Vizzy hard seltzer, was the subject of a $9.5 million class action lawsuit settlement for Molson Coors Beverage Co. to resolve claims its products were misleadingly labeled as having “antioxidant vitamin C from acerola superfruit.”
