How to waste less when making coffee and tea

Here's how you can waste less when brewing coffee or tea.

ProblemSolved, Reviewed

Snapchill, a coffee company, voluntarily recalled all of its canned coffee products because they could potentially cause botulism.

On June 17, the Green Bay, Wisconsin-based company recalled nearly 300 products over concerns that they could lead to the "growth and production" of botulinum, a potentially deadly toxin, according to Food and Drug Administration's recall announcement. The FDA announced the recall on Friday.

The issue was identified when the FDA notified Snapchill that its manufacturing process for low acid canned foods had not been filed with the agency, the recall announcement states.

Which products are being recalled?

The products are sold under a variety of brand names in cans ranging from 7 to 12 oz. Some products can also be identified by the text “Snapchill Coffee,” but all the products state "produced and distributed by Snapchill LLC" below the nutrition facts panel.

Since Friday, no illnesses have been reported, reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, a part of the USA TODAY Network.
