MET-Rx EXTREME NOS PUMPED NITRO-PUNCH Naturally Flavored DIETARY SUPPLEMENT recall

Recalled by NBTY Inc. · Bohemia, NY, United States

Class III — Low risk. Unlikely to cause harm, but violates FDA regulations.

Why it was recalled

The color, odor, and taste of the products are changing and do not meet the firm's high quality standards. This is an issue of commercial spoilage.

These are failures of the safety steps that keep food safe - cooking, pasteurising, keeping cold, sealing - even when no contaminant has yet been found. All processing & sanitation problems recalls.

FDA's distribution note: Nationwide

Low risk, but check. Class III means the product is unlikely to make anyone ill but breaks an FDA rule, often a labeling one. If your package matches, the store will normally refund it. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
