On July 11, Danone U.S., the maker of some of the country’s most popular yogurt brands, announced it was recalling all of its YoCrunch yogurt products. The recall was launched after consumers complained about finding plastic fragments in the YoCrunch toppers, which contain mix-ins like Oreos and M&M’s.
The plastic fragments are clear, up to an inch in size, and may have sharp edges, making them a dangerous choking hazard. No flavor or size of YoCrunch yogurt is safe to eat right now.
YoCrunch Yogurt Recall
Product Name: YoCrunch Yogurt (Various Flavors)
Date of Recall: July 11, 2025
Cause: Plastic found in the yogurt mix-ins
What Yogurt Is Part of This Recall?
Danone hasn't said when the contaminated YoCrunch yogurts started appearing in stores. However, its list of affected products includes yogurts with expiration dates from July through September. That means any YoCrunch yogurt that's currently on the market is affected by this recall.
The list of flavors includes popular yogurt options like:
Yo Crunch Vanilla Yogurt with M&M's
YoCrunch Strawberry Yogurt with Granola
YoCrunch Vanilla Yogurt with Oreo Pieces
YoCrunch Vanilla Yogurt with Snickers Pieces
YoCrunch Vanilla Yogurt with Twix Pieces
YoCrunch Vanilla Yogurt with Cookie Dough
This recall affects all sizes of YoCrunch, too, including:
6-ounce individual cups
4-ounce yogurts in four-packs
6-ounce yogurts in eight-packs
6-ounce yogurts in 18-packs
The company is working with grocery stores and other retailers to remove the contaminated yogurt from shelves. We don't recommend buying YoCrunch until fresh product appears in the dairy case, but Danone has not yet said when that will happen.
For a full list of the recalled products with UPCs and expiration dates, check out the chart in Danone's press release.

What To Do With Recalled Yogurt
Danone urges anyone who bought YoCrunch not to eat the yogurt. Some grocery chains, such as Wegmans, have already notified customers about the recall, saying that the product can be returned to the customer service desk for a full refund. We expect other grocers to offer refunds as well.
If you have any questions about the recall or how to get a refund, contact the YoCrunch Consumer Care Line at 1-877-344-4886, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
