FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - SEATTLE - February 11, 2014 Evolution Fresh is initiating a voluntary product recall of approximately 1,700 bottles of Organic Sweet Greens and Ginger juice with a best by date of March 2, 2014. The juices, which make up less than half of one percent of total Evolution Fresh production, were sold beginning on January 18, 2014, only in California and Nevada at approximately 120 grocery stores. This product was not sold in Starbucks retail stores.

The company initiated the recall after identifying a small number of Organic Sweet Greens and Ginger juices with best by dates of March 2, 2014 that were swollen and is currently conducting an investigation. There are no customer complaints or known illnesses related to this product at this time. Regardless, customer well-being is Evolution Freshs top priority, so this voluntary product recall is being initiated out of an abundance of caution.

Organic Sweet Greens and Ginger juices with other best by dates are not included in this recall, nor are any other Evolution Fresh products. This product was only sold at grocery retailers in California and Nevada. Customers in possession of the recalled product should not consume it and should discard it. Customers with questions may contact the company by phone at 1-800-794- 9986 to get a refund.
