Warning Issued By Father After He Finds A Mold In Daughter’s Juice Pouch

A father wanted to give treat to his 3-yr old daughter but found that this treat can harm his daughter’s health to a great extent. He went online and warned everyone. 




Parents are concerned about everything which is related to their kids whether it is about their studies, clothes or food items. There is no denying the fact that there are many food items in the market which are unhealthy and should not be consumed by the kids. It is the duty of parents to make sure that their kids eat only healthy food so that they grow into a fit and strong human being.

Earlier, people used to consume only home-made food and juices but nowadays, due to busy life schedule, people are increasingly turning towards packed food items and fruit juices. The companies which are selling these items claim that their products are completely healthy but how true their claims are:

1Big brand names are in the market

There are many big brands in the market and claim that their products are completely healthy and tasty. People tend to rely on the name of these big brands and buy products for the whole family including their kids also. However, sometimes they get a rude shock when they find that the claims of these big brands are not as true as they claim to be.

2A father from Columbus, Indiana found something which shocked him

3He made a video

As Cameron felt that there is something wrong in one of the juice pouches, he made a video in which he can be seen opening the lesser full juice pouch and pouring the juice in a glass. A strange type of solid structure like mold drops into the glass and this is highly shocking as there are huge number of people who consume Capri Sun juices.

4It is definitely not acceptable

As something like mold drops into the glass, Cameron says that he doesn’t know what this is but this was a treat for a three-year-old and what has just happened is not acceptable. Undoubtedly, this is not acceptable by any means as no parent can afford to take their kid’s health lightly.

5He issued a warning

Cameron issued a warning for all the parents and grandparents in order to make them aware about it so that they personally check such items and their kid is not exposed to any item which may affect the health of their kid in an adverse manner. He also said that he read about it in the past but what surprised him the most was the fact that it is going on till date.

6He wrote that he will never again give this to his kids

He also wrote on his Facebook wall that it would be an understatement to say that they are irate and they used to give this juice to their kid often but now they won’t be giving it to their kids, ever again. Clearly, this mistake is going to cost dearly to the company as many regular customers will stop using their product.

9The company’s spokesperson, Lynne Galia said

The company said in a statement that though formation of mold is rare inside juice drinks but it does happen in juice drinks without preservatives if the packet gets punctured during the journey which starts from their facilities to the home of the customer who has purchased it from some store or outlet.
