Unpasteurized Orange Juice Recalled for Lack of HACCP Plan

Jugos Naturales del Pepino is recalling 29 gallons of unpasteurized natural orange juice because it was manufactured without a HACCP Plan.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is a procedural failure (lack of HACCP plan) rather than a confirmed contamination event, fitting the 'voluntary precautionary' or low-risk contamination criteria.
