Golden Crop Candy recall: FDA order affects THESE states amid color additive issue
Posted on: Apr 19, 2025 02:46 IST | Posted by: Hindustantimes
The solid food and do drugs governance (FDA) has issued a call back for halcyon Crop Candy sold in eight states, including New York. The recall was initiated by Blooming Import Inc. In Brooklyn after the presence of undeclared color additives was found. The order affects 74 cases, which include dyes Blue 1, Red 40 and Acid Red 18, which were not declared on the label.
A Class II recall is an FDA classification for products that may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious health issues is remote. Examples include mislabeled drugs with minor potency issues or devices posing temporary risks, like a toy with a choking hazard for young children. These recalls are typically voluntary, initiated by manufacturers, but monitored by the FDA to ensure effective removal or correction.
The Golden Crop Candy recall affects eight states. Color additives have been under scrutiny since the FDA banned Red Dye No. 3, citing links to cancer. California also banned several dyes last year. The agency requires brands to label products for dyes for those who are sensitive to such ingredients.
The candy was distributed in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Delaware and Texas.
“Color additives are safe when used properly. There is no such thing as absolute safety of any substance. In the case of a new color additive, the FDA determines if there is ‘a reasonable certainty of no harm’ under the color additive’s proposed conditions of use." Dr Linda Katz, director of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Office of Cosmetics and Colors, told Newsweek.
