QC Deep-dive: Preventing glass contamination in cashews — lessons from the 2017 recall
In 2017, Star Snacks Co. recalled two lots of Southern Grove Cashew Halves and Pieces with Sea Salt (8.0 oz, UPC 041498179366), sold at Aldi across 28 US states. The reason: consumer reports of glass pieces in the package. No injuries were reported. But the recall cost, brand damage, and legal exposure were all serious. For international buyers, this is the nightmare scenario.
