Business Wire shared that the flexible film bag (the outer packaging) of the liquid detergent pods is meant to prevent the liquid from spilling out.
However, the packaging could split open and release the liquid.
This can cause serious injury and health risks for children and other vulnerable people if the liquid is consumed.
The recalled products were sold at the following places nationwide from September 2023 until the present day.
- Big Lots
- CVS
