Fans of Danone's YoCrunch® yogurt are going to want to pay attention to a recall issued by Danone U.S. The company is voluntarily recalling all of its YoCrunch® products after being alerted to a potential safety issue.

Danone has issued a recall of its YoCrunch® yogurts.
The YoCrunch® products sold by Danone — which are the yogurts that feature a plastic dome on top of the yogurt package, that can be opened and added when you're ready to eat to prevent the separated pieces from becoming soggy and soft — are being recalled due to potential plastic contamination in the dome topper.
In a press release shared on the company's website, Danone stated that the plastic pieces could pose a choking hazard to customers, and they likely measure between 7 and 25 mm.
Not only that, but the pieces of plastic found in the dome could also have jagged edges, which could cause additional injury.
The company is working with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to get the word out, and to ensure that all impacted YoCrunch® products have been removed from shelves.
Which Danone Yogurts were included in the recall?
The FDA shared Danone's recall statement on July 14, 2025. In it, the organization broke down a list of the products and the product lot numbers and expiration dates. To be clear, all YoCrunch® products have been included in this recall, and that includes:
- YOCRUNCH VANILLA M&M
- YOCRUNCH VANILLA OREO
- YOCRUNCH STRAW W/M&M
- YOCRUNCH STRAW W/GRANOLA
- YOCRUNCH VANILLA W/TWIX CANDY

What should I do if I purchased the recalled Danone Yogurt?
Customers are being advised to discontinue using the recalled yogurts at once, and Danone has recommended tossing any remaining product in the trash.
The FDA is directing anyone with questions about refunds to reach out to Danone directly by contacting the YoCrunch® Consumer Care Line at 1-877-344-4886 during regular business hours.
