Back in March, Horizon issued a release stating that the recall was triggered by "a packaging seal issue" that could cause boxes to swell, leak, or spoil the milk. The product may have an unpleasant taste, odor, or texture. "Corrective and preventive actions have been implemented to prevent recurrence," the company added.

The recall has been classified as Class II by the FDA, meaning that the products can "cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences."

If you bought the chocolate milk, discard the cartons, keep your proof of purchase, including a copy of your receipt and available packaging information, and contact the company at 1-888-494-3020 to find out if you're eligible for a refund, according to the Horizon Organic Dairy release.
