The Hawaiʻi Department of Health has issued a voluntary recall of Meadow Gold chocolate milk half-pints with the expiration date October 16, 2025.
This recall is precautionary due to potential quality control issues — there have been no confirmed illnesses. Families are asked not to consume any Meadow Gold chocolate milk labeled “OCT 16” if it looks, smells, or tastes unusual.
Our school has stopped serving the affected product and will be offering shelf-stable milk or water as a substitute until further notice.
We’ll continue to follow state guidance to keep our students safe and healthy. 💛
