Stonewall Kitchen, LLC

What happened

Stonewall Kitchen is recalling Vermont Village Organic Unsweetened Apple Sauce because testing found elevated levels of patulin, a naturally occurring toxin that can develop in apples during storage or processing. This is a precautionary measure to prevent potential health issues from consuming the contaminated product.

Who is at risk

While patulin can affect anyone who consumes significant amounts, young children, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems may be more vulnerable to its effects.

What to do

Check your home for the recalled applesauce (UPC 362401 | 084648311285) and stop using it immediately. Return the product to the store where you purchased it for a refund, or contact Stonewall Kitchen directly for instructions on how to dispose of it safely.
