Maine Included in Expanded Recall of Sprout Organics Baby Food Pouches
The recall covers multiple lot codes with best-by dates through Feb. 2026 and affects products sold in 28 states, with no illnesses reported so far, officials said.
- Sprout Organics expanded a voluntary recall of its Sweet Potato, Apple and Spinach 3.5-ounce pouches sold online, at Walgreens and independent retailers in 28 states.
- The recall began after routine sampling found possible elevated lead levels in certain lots, following an initial September 16 recall of one lot, Sprout Organics said.
- Affected lot codes include 4212 , 4213 , 4282 , and 4310 for 3.5-ounce pouches.
- Consumers should return recalled pouches to stores for a full refund, Sprout Organics said, noting no illnesses have been reported while the FDA and CDC warn lead exposure may affect development.
- Since 2021, lawmakers have flagged toxic metals in baby foods, prompting the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to consolidate lawsuits and the Texas Attorney General to investigate Gerber and Plum Organics earlier this month.
