PT Organics Limited is voluntarily recalling select Pumpkin Tree Peter Rabbit Organics Banana & Strawberry Fruit Puree Pouches after an internal packaging defect was found to potentially leave a strand of soft, food-grade plastic inside the finished product.
The company announced the recall July 21, 2026, the same day the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published the notice as a public service.

What triggered the recall
The recall was initiated after PT Organics’ packaging supplier recalled a defective production run of pouches. Subsequent inspections of finished product made with the recalled packaging confirmed the presence of a plastic strand attached to the inside of a small number of pouches.
No injuries have been reported.

The recall covers 4 oz. (113 g) Banana & Strawberry Fruit Puree Pouches sold exclusively at Kroger, Meijer, and Target stores nationwide between March 6, 2026, and July 13, 2026.
