Nearly 900,000 tea bags by the organic tea brand Yogi are being recalled due to a detectable amount of pesticide on the product, according to an enforcement report posted on the US Food and Drug Administration’s website.
The Echinacea Immune Support teabags are sold in stores across the country and were first recalled in March by parent company East West Tea. A full list of affected lot numbers is available in the report on the FDA’s site.
The Class III recall means using the product “is not likely to cause adverse health consequences,” according to the FDA.

May 15, 2024: From the Buffalo Vaad Hakashrus (BVK):
"As part of their periodic review of their product offerings, Tops has decided that they would like to change which products are Va'ad-certified to meet their operational needs. The BVK is happily assisting Tops to ensure that the procedures in place will allow for the most expansive list of Va'ad-certified bakery products, along with a new BVK sticker that will allow for easier identification by the Kosher consumer as to which items are BVK-certified.
"As a result, the BVK and Tops are resetting the Kosher protocol in the bakery. Until the new list of certified products is published, products from the Bakery at 3980 Maple Road should not be considered Va’ad-certified until further notice. The goal is to have everything reset at the Bakery in the next few weeks with new Kosher stickers and signs to reflect the updated Kosher offerings.
"Additionally, Tops customers should refrain from purchasing any fresh Chametz products until after May 15th and shelf-stable Chametz products should not be bought until after May 25th. There are no issues with buying Chametz from the Okonov’s Deli section."
