FDA Issues Multiple Food, Drug, and Device Recalls. Here are the ones listed from the past 60 Days
By Jeff Devine, Dale County Chronicle
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has announced several recalls in the past 60 days across food, drug, and medical-device categories. These recalls involve contamination risks, mislabeling, and manufacturing concerns.
Face Rock Creamery LLC recalled its Vampire Slayer Garlic Cheddar cheese on November 15, 2025, after Listeria monocytogenes was detected in environmental tests of the production area. Sixteen 6-ounce blocks with a use-by date of November 4, 2026, are affected. The company is advising consumers to return or discard the product for a refund.
On November 13, Food To Live recalled its Organic Supergreens Powder Mix and Organic Moringa Leaf Powder due to possible Salmonella contamination. The recall covers multiple package sizes (8 oz to 44 lb) and lot codes from SO-69006 through SO-72558. The issue appears linked to a broader Salmonella outbreak.
Africa Imports followed on November 12, recalling its 1-kg boxes of Organic Moringa Leaf Powder sold after June 5, 2025, for the same Salmonella risk. Customers are being urged to stop using the product immediately, dispose of it safely, and contact the company for confirmation of disposal.
A critical recall was issued by ByHeart, Inc. on November 8, 2025, for Whole Nutrition Infant Formula, originally for two specific batches (251261P2 and 251131P2, use-by December 1, 2026) due to possible Clostridium botulinum contamination. However, by November 11 the company expanded the recall to all unexpired lots of its formula following further FDA investigation, including its single-serve “Anywhere Pack™” sticks. Botulism is particularly dangerous for infants, and parents are asked to stop using the recalled formula immediately. ByHeart is replacing affected cans and urging families to watch for symptoms like a weak cry, trouble swallowing, low muscle tone, or breathing difficulties.
On November 9, Moonlight Companies, in collaboration with Kroger, recalled California-grown yellow and white peaches for potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The peaches were sold individually and in multipacks. Consumers are strongly advised not to eat any of the recalled fruit and to contact the company via its recall hotline.
Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC recalled its Famotidine Injection, USP (20 mg/2 mL) on November 7 because some vials tested with out-of-specification endotoxin levels. This injectable medication poses a risk of triggering inflammatory reactions in patients due to the endotoxin issue.
On November 6, African Food on Wheels Inc. issued a recall of its Oven Dried Fish (Scomberomorus cavalla) due to potential Clostridium botulinum. The product was sold as a whole, uneviscerated dried fish—a form more susceptible to botulism. Consumers are warned not to consume the fish and are advised to return it for a refund.
Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream, Inc. recalled Häagen-Dazs Chocolate Dark Chocolate Mini Bars (6-count) on November 4 after discovering undeclared wheat in the product. The recall affects bars with batch code LLA519501 and “Best By” date January 31, 2027. People with wheat allergies or gluten sensitivities may be at risk, and the company is offering refunds.
In the medical device space, a number of Class II recalls have been posted. Abbott Medical recalled its Liberta RC DBS IPG and Eterna SCS IPG implantable pulse generators, Medline Industries recalled various Renewal LigaSure surgical instruments, and Miach Orthopaedics pulled its BEAR Implant used for ACL repair. Beckman Coulter also recalled its UniCel DxI 600 and 800 photometric chemistry analyzers, and, in a more serious move, Siemens received a Class I recall for its MAGNETOM Cima. X Upgrade imaging system due to safety concerns.
The FDA continues to urge consumers, healthcare providers, and product distributors to closely review all recall notices on its website and take appropriate actions for disposal, return, or monitoring.
