Chobani Yogurt Recall!!!

cleotherio

I'd just finished one of the "bad" ones before I saw this on a friend's facebook feed. I had a Key Lime. It was pretty runny, like regular non-Greek yogurt. I hadn't had the flavor before, so I figured it was just different from others. Oh well. It tasted fine, and 45 minutes later I still feel good.

I guess that explains why the Winco near my home last week had no Chobani singles at all on the shelves (just 4 packs). Still I think I better check the stamps on the 4 pack I did buy when I get home just to be safe.

The one I had was from a 4-pack., and it's one of the affected ones. The individual cups within the pack have the code stamped on the lid.

I knew something was up.... The "Flip" banana flavored ones I had were so swollen they were about a day away from popping. Ugh so glad I didn't eat em.

I am so weary about sour/rotten things. I once ONCE took a sip of sour milk in elementary school and have never felt the same about milk since. I still won't drink cow's milk. The smell of whole milk makes me cringe.

Very good to know. Might switch to Oikos or Activia Greek. Chobani has been runny and soup recently. If they fix it I may come back to it.

Thanks for posting OP!:flowerforyou:

I bought a couple of these. Threw one away because the lid was swollen and it looked funny when I opened it. I ate the other one, but had never had the flavor before and thought it was just a weird flavor. That was about a week ago (would have to check my diary), but I don't think it made me sick or anything.

ETA: The next time I went to this store, they had already pulled everything off the shelves.

Chobani is available at costco for less than $1 apiece every time we go ($12 for a 15-pack with 5 each of 3 flavors), and we've never had a puffy or funny tasting one. Also, you get 10% more per individual carton (6oz versus 5.4oz) than you do with Oikos. I tried the Dannon Light & fit ones, but I don't like the overly sweet sucralose taste.

good info to have, for sure... but a bad batch or two out of thousands isn't going to sway me from them. Especially since the symptoms of the bad batch are ones that would make me toss the container anyway.

True.... I've never had a problem with Costco's batch. Only Pathmark and Shoprite... hmm.

The news article with all the details is linked in the original post.

I found out about the recall on Friday - Safeway was pulling all Chobani products. I can't stand them to begin with, so I talked the grocer into ordering more of the kind I DO buy, The Greek Gods, because they've not been stocking it off & on for a few months. I end up having to go to the other end of town to buy it...

I started with Chobani, then Oiko's but just tried Liberte and it is really good, less calories too To Echo some of the sentiment that has been said, check your food, it's not one manufacturer, it can happen to anyone, Human error and all that:bigsmile:

I had some of the peach flavor... It had an odd flavor like someone had poured a little beer in it.

I had a few earlier this week, they were really odd and lumpy, and some were really watery. Won't be buying that again!

nicoleashley_24

Bump.. I had some tubes that were in the recall. Ugh.

dym123

I had one a couple of weeks ago, no swollen lid, but definitely soupy and tasted funny. I prefer Nostimo, but I tend to buy whatever is on sale that week.

All the more reason not to buy packaged food...

Yeah, we recently had a fresh cilantro recall in my area...listeria.

All the more reason not to buy/eat food at all. Maybe it's time to consider breatharianism?

I like the one where you absorb the rays of the sun for an hour each day, but only at sunrise and sunset. Humans only need Vitamin D, don't cha know.

But what about skin cancer?

xcatsaxon

Yup, I got hold of some of them and it turns out the 2 weeks I was so sick...Chobani was the only thing that was new to my diet- well, because I was trying to eat healthier and add yogurt; what luck I have.

verymissk

I like Fage anyway... Chobani is always all runny and yucky.

I've had store brand yogurt have the "zingy" taste. Ended up sick that night. Kind of worries me as my daughter has been eating the chobani champions tubes this week. I've tasted them but not noticed anything out of the ordinary but I worry that she wouldn't have noticed a different taste. Not sure if I will be buying them anymore... And we were so excited to find those too. I guess, all brands have mess ups some time or another though.

Thanks for the heads up. I will check mine when I get home. I had a pomegranate one yesterday that was fine, but have a bunch in the fridge.

milesbrockovich

My yogurt this morning did taste strangely tangy, and I had a soupy yet lumpy one yesterday... Didn't make me sick, though.

I didn't notice any bloating or swelling, though.

Also explains why the grocery store was all out the other day.

mag131

I had to throw two out last week due to the runny/curdled appearance. The ones I bought yesterday seem to be fine though.

Chobani pomegranate is gross.

Maybe you could go to the URL referenced? I don't know... just throwin that out there.

Francl27

Ok mine all expire after Oct 12. Phew.

AynzL

GROSS! I too, just threw some out that were CHUNKY! They looked rotten. I will have to look at the link you posted!!!


EDITED TO ADD: I'm SOOOO glad I found this post. I immediately went to my fridge and looked at the rest of the yogurt I hadn't opened and it's seconds from exploding it's so swollen!!! It is the same code as what's on the article!!! The few seconds they were out of my fridge the bottoms started popping out.

I prefer Dannon Light and Fit - good protein and only 80 calories. Very yummy too! )

the sucralose part turns me off.. rather eat a plain chiobani for 100 calories and 7g sguar

I had a swollen one, too. I'll have to read the article. Hope all is well. I'll be returning mine to the store tomorrow.

I just bought a four-pack of the keylime and it seems fine, but since it's blended instead of fruit on the bottom I didn't think too much of it. Ate two of them so far and I'm fine. I did notice the blackberry I bought a bit ago (like last month) was runny, but I just thought it was the flavor. No swollen lids....

I opened one yesterday that had a pull date of 9/6 and it was partially moldy on top. Ewww.
Have two left that are going in the trash. Switching brands.
