International Delight creamer recalled over zero sugar mislabeling

Danone US issued a recall for 1,799 cases of International Delight brand zero sugar peppermint mocha creamer in October because it actually contained sugar.

Danone US distributed the recalled creamer to Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, New Mexico, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin.
