Stiebs LLC, of Madera, CA, is recalling 25,484 cases of Organic Acai Bowls with berries, bananas, granola and dried coconut because of potential contamination with blue pieces of plastic.
According to details published online by the Food and Drug Administration, the recall was initiated on Feb. 7, 2025, and is ongoing. The recall is classified as a Class II risk, indicating a low probability of serious health consequences but a potential for temporary or reversible effects.
The recalled products were distributed to seven distribution centers located in California, Connecticut, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia, from which they may have been further shipped to retail locations.
There is concern that consumers may still have the recalled product in their homes because some of the bowls have expiration dates reaching into February 2026.

About foreign material contamination
Plastic pieces in food pose a risk of choking or injury to the mouth, throat or digestive tract if ingested. Consumers who have consumed the recalled acai bowls and experience symptoms such as pain, difficulty swallowing or unusual discomfort should seek medical attention promptly. While the Class II classification suggests a low risk of serious adverse health effects, the presence of foreign material remains a safety concern.
