Joly's Recalls 80% Vinegar Due to Poisoning and Chemical Burn Risks

What Happened

Joly’s LLC has initiated a recall of its 80% Vinegar product because it fails to meet the precautionary labeling requirements of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA). The product lacks essential warning labels and first-aid instructions, presenting a risk of poisoning if swallowed and serious chemical burns to the eyes and skin if handled incorrectly.

Which Products Are Affected

The recall includes approximately 450 units of Joly’s 80% Vinegar (32-ounce, pack of two). The vinegar is packaged in transparent bottles with white caps and features an orange and red label with white lettering. The label displays the “Joly’s” brand name, “80% Vinegar,” and “Dilutes to 5 Gallons.” These products were sold online at Amazon.com between May 2025 and November 2025 for approximately $23.

What You Should Do

Consumers are advised to immediately store the recalled vinegar in a location out of sight and reach of children. Contact Joly’s to receive a full refund and specific disposal instructions. To qualify for the refund, consumers must email [email protected] with a photograph of the product in its original packaging with the word “RECALLED” clearly printed on the container. Joly’s can be reached by phone at 240-412-8720 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday.

Why This Matters

The lack of mandatory safety labeling on high-concentration vinegar poses a significant risk of accidental poisoning or severe chemical injury, which can be life-threatening.
