There are a few well-known brands, including Mott's and Welch's, but Martinelli's is another classic—and it's still sold in those familiar old-fashioned glass bottles.
The recall was initiated after the State of Maryland tested the apple juice in one-liter bottles, finding that they had levels of inorganic arsenic"above the guidance action level" issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration . Per the recall notice from S. Martinelli & Company, the level was 1.6 parts per billion higher than the action level, which is set at 10 ppb to be in line with requirements for water.
While arsenic may be present in foods because it's in the environment where they're grown, raised, or processed, it's also associated with negative health effects, the FDA said. These include cancer, diabetes, adverse birth outcomes, and cardiovascular and neurodevelopmental effects.
Retailers were instructed to remove the apple juice from stores and shelves and were asked to inform customers. The recall notice doesn't have explicit instructions for customers who may have recalled products at home, but anyone with questions is instructed to contact Martinelli's directly at 1-800-662-1868.
