Boba Tea, More Specialty Beverages Recalled. See Affected Items

A nationwide recall has been issued for several specialty beverage products sold under multiple brand names due to possible salmonella contamination.

SKS Copack announced the recall of various powdered beverage and dessert mix products after learning that an ingredient supplied by California Dairies, Inc. may have been contaminated, according to a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notice published on May 23.

The recalled products, which SKS Copack announced on May 22, include items sold under the Angel Specialty Products, Royal Gold, Boba Time, Fanale and Denda brands. No illnesses have been reported.

According to the FDA, the products may contain salmonella, a bacteria that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections, particularly in young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems. Healthy individuals infected with salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, the FDA states. In rare cases, the infection can spread to the bloodstream and cause more severe illnesses.

The products were distributed to cafes, restaurants and through direct delivery in California, Utah, Idaho, New York, New Jersey, Arizona, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Texas, Ohio, Louisiana, Georgia, Florida, Illinois, Oklahoma, Massachusetts, Washington, Oregon, Wisconsin, Nevada, Virginia, Connecticut, Tennessee, Kentucky and Minnesota.
