Babyganics is voluntarily recalling two lots of 20-ounce bottles of Babyganics 20oz chamomile verbena bubble bath, due to the presence of the bacterium Pluralibacter gergoviae.
During internal testing related to product shelf life across the Babyganics bubble bath line, it was discovered that two specific lot numbers of this product contained the bacterium.
The only products affected are babyganics 20oz chamomile verbena bubble bath UPC 8 13277 01375 4 with lot codes Y314 and Y315 found at the bottom of the packaging and contained in a white plastic bottle with a green plastic lid. The products were sold in the last two months only at select retailers in the US.
The company said its testing confirmed that no other Babyganics products contained this bacterium.
Consumers with the affected product will be provided with a full refund after submitting their product and contact information at babyganicsbubblebathrecall.com. This website will also provide instructions to consumers for how to dispose of the product.
Also this month, Best Brands Consumer Products, Inc. voluntarily recalled two finished product lots of The Mandalorian Hand Sanitizer Ethyl Alcohol 68%, available in green and blue formulations and Mickey Mouse Hand Sanitizer Ethyl Alcohol 68% blue formulation to the consumer level. FDA testing found the presence of benzene in The Mandalorian Hand Sanitizer product and methanol in the Mickey Mouse Hand Sanitizer product. Best Brands imported these two lots, which were produced by a third-party manufacturer.
Upon being notified of the testing results by FDA in late February, 2022, Best Brands promptly investigated and determined that both of the affected lots were produced during the months of April and May, 2020 and confirmed that the affected lots had already been removed from sale in April 2021 for unrelated commercial reasons.
The recall impacts 44,640 bottles of Mickey Mouse Hand Sanitizer and 346,320 bottles Mandalorian Hand Sanitizer.
