Cameron Hardwick, a family man from Indianapolis, USA, wanted to give his three-year-old daughter juice from the brand “Capri-Sun”. As he looked at the product closer, he noticed that he could allow his daughter not to drink it. Because it was anything other than fit for human consumption.
“After dinner, my oldest daughter asked me for some juice,” said Cameron Hardwick on Facebook. He took a pack of “Capri-Sun” out of the fridge and noticed immediately that something was wrong with that, even though the pack closed and the content was still preserved.
“When I looked at the packaging more closely, I noticed there are no holes or the like”, continue to push Hardwick. But when he cuts the “Capri-Sun” with a pair of scissors and the contents in a glass poured out, showed that his suspicion was unfounded. A kind of mold float with the juice from the pack.
“To say that we are angry would be an understatement!”
After the disgust-Fund and Hardwicks complaint to Facebook and reported the manufacturer is Kraft Foods for the family and sent an appraiser who brought the package to the laboratory. The cause of the mould formation a microscope was, therefore, to table a small puncture, by the oxygen in the pack was able to penetrate.
On the “Capri-Sun”-Website of the manufacturer covered by the position: “It is a common, naturally occurring food-mold. Even if it is rare, it can happen, that mold forms in the containers of preservative-free juices, if the packaging has been compromised on the way from the factory to the supermarket, or in any way damaged.“
Hardwick and his family have lost confidence in the manufacturer and the product, “Capri-Sun” apparently. On Facebook, the father wrote: “To say that we are angry would be an understatement! We have not given our children often, but now we will never do it again.“
