The New York Milk Bank, Inc. announced a voluntary recall of 66 milk bottles on November 11, 2025, citing concerns over possible contamination. The FDA designated this recall as a Class II risk on December 15, 2025. This classification indicates that exposure to the product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health effects.
The bottles in question are identifiable by their foil seal and green lid and were distributed solely within New York. Foreign material in food products can pose health risks, including choking and internal injuries, particularly for vulnerable populations. The FDA defines foreign material as non-food items that could harm consumers.
As of December 15, 2025, the FDA reported no illnesses linked to the recalled milk. Foreign material contamination is a recognized issue in food processing, with plastic fragments being a common recall complaint over the past two decades. The recall remains ongoing, and consumers are advised not to consume the affected product.
