Brooklyn Roasting recalls cold brew over botulism risk in NY, NJ

Botulism is a rare condition caused by a toxin that attacks the body's nerves. It can be fatal. Symptoms of foodborne botulism usually start 12 to 36 hours after exposure and include trouble swallowing, dry mouth, blurred vision, drooping eyelids, upset stomach, trouble breathing and paralysis. Anyone experiencing those symptoms is urged to go to the emergency room immediately.

There have been no reports of illnesses caused by the cold brew products, the FDA said.

The Brooklyn Roasting Company sells its products at its own cafes, other coffee shops, gourmet grocery stores, independent markets and online, according to The Patch. The company did not specify where the affected cold brew had been distributed.

The Brooklyn Roasting Company did not immediately respond to FOX Business' request for comment.
