Joy Mint Lassi 16 oz. recalled for inadequate pasteurization

Joy Gourmet Foods LLC is recalling Joy Mint Lassi 16 oz. because the product was not adequately pasteurized, which may allow harmful bacteria to survive.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving inadequate pasteurization of a dairy-based beverage, which creates a risk for high-risk pathogen survival (e.g., Listeria). No illnesses have been reported, but the hazard is not merely theoretical—it reflects a significant processing failure that could enable harmful bacteria to reach consumers.
