Tru Fru Recalls Freeze‑Dried Strawberry Snacks Nationwide Over Potential Metal

The FDA urges consumers to check the 10‑digit code on packages to determine if they should discard them.

Overview

  • Georgia Nut Company, Tru Fru’s third‑party manufacturer, initiated a voluntary recall after a consumer reported finding metal.
  • The action covers Freeze Dried Strawberries in Dark & White Chocolate (1.7‑oz, 3.4‑oz, 13‑oz) and Strawberries & Crème (3.4‑oz) limited to specified lot‑code prefixes.
  • Products were sold nationwide at major retailers and online, including Target, Kroger, CVS, H‑E‑B, Albertson’s, Food Lion, Hungryroot, Ingles Markets, and Stew Leonard’s.
  • Consumers should verify the first four characters of the 10‑digit manufacturing code on the back of each bag, discard affected items, and contact Tru Fru/RQA Inc. at 888‑293‑7748 or trufru@rqa‑inc.com for reimbursement or questions.
  • No injuries or illnesses have been reported, and the FDA says retailers are removing impacted inventory as it continues to monitor the recall.
