Consumers who have purchased “JUICE from the Raw” cashew milk in the affected states are advised not to consume the product. Due to the risk of pathogenic bacteria, the product should be disposed of immediately or returned to the point of purchase. For further information, consumers may contact Everpress Juice at their Philadelphia headquarters located at 6510 Eastwick Ave.

Why This Matters
