Urgent YoCrunch Yogurt Recall: What You Need to Know About the Target Wenatchee Alert

Why Is YoCrunch Yogurt Being Recalled Nationwide

On July 11, 2025, Danone US issued a voluntary nationwide recall for YoCrunch yogurt products, including those sold at the Target store located at 1102 Springwater Avenue in Wenatchee, Washington. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced this recall due to serious safety concerns associated with potential contamination in the yogurt dome toppers. These issues include plastic fragments that pose a choking hazard, undeclared allergens, and potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The recall applies to all YoCrunch 4-count/4-ounce cup packages with an expiration date from July 7 to September 4, 2025, including toppers such as M&Ms, Oreos, Twix, Snickers, cookie dough pieces, and granola.

Urgent: YoCrunch yogurt recall at Target Wenatchee due to plastic in toppers

What’s the Issue with the Yogurt Toppers

The FDA's July 15, 2025 notice clarifies that the recall is due to reports by consumers of transparent plastic pieces (7-25 mm long, some with sharp edges) found in the separately packaged toppers, not in the yogurt itself. Ingestion of these pieces could cause choking or injury. Additionally, some products may contain undeclared allergens, and there is also a risk of Listeria contamination, which can cause serious illness, especially in pregnant women, the elderly, or people with weakened immune systems. The affected flavors include YoCrunch Strawberry with Granola, Vanilla with M&M's, Vanilla with Oreo, and Strawberry with M&M's.

How Does This Affect Shoppers at Target Wenatchee

If you recently purchased YoCrunch yogurt from Wenatchee-based Target or another retailer, check your fridge! The recall applies to products sold nationwide, and the Wenatchee Target is specifically marked as a distribution center. Consumers are urged not to consume these products, even if they look fine, because the toppers contain potential hazards. The FDA and Danone are working to remove all affected products from stores, but some may still be in homes.

What Should You Do If You Have These Products

If you have YoCrunch yogurt with the specified toppers and expiration dates, stop using it immediately. You can contact the YoCrunch Consumer Service Center at 1-877-344-4886 (Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern Time) for refund information.
