Baby food sold across the US recalled due to possible health risk
The recall involves a single lot of Tippy Toes puree with patulin levels that may cause immune suppression and nerve damage after long-term exposure, FDA said no illnesses reported.
- The maker of Tippy Toes baby food recalled a single lot of apple, pear and banana fruit puree over elevated patulin levels, according to the FDA.
- Health officials noted that the FDA said patulin is produced by molds in fruits and that long-term exposure may pose health risks, including immune suppression and nerve damage.
- Sold in two-pack plastic tubs, the product carries a "best by" date July 17, 2026, and the FDA advised consumers to discontinue use and return or discard it.
- The FDA reported no illnesses connected to the recall as of Feb. 13; distribution may have included U.S. territories like Guam and Puerto Rico.
- With a July 17, 2026 best-by date, the product’s long shelf life means affected tubs may remain in households later this year, prompting retail returns and disposal practices.
