Four things to check at home this week: two sunscreen ingredients FDA just ruled out, a 2.3-million-bottle candy recall, fire-spray canisters that can rupture, and a cheese with undeclared egg.
On September 11 the FDA published a final order removing PABA and trolamine salicylate as sunscreen active ingredients, finding that a sunscreen containing either is not generally recognized as safe and effective. The day before, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced two recalls a household can check in seconds: about 2.3 million Ricky Joy Sour Crush rolling liquid candy bottles, whose rolling ball can detach and choke a child, and about 31,000 Hero Fire Spray canisters, which can deteriorate and rupture — the firm has nine reports of canisters exploding or deteriorating in storage. And Whole Foods Market is recalling Cabricharme cheese sold at 18 stores because it contains an egg protein not declared on the label. What each notice asks you to look for, and what none of them says.

Two recalls this week come down to a number you can check at home: one UPC on a bag of broccoli sprouts, and six lot codes on wellness vials.
A Salmonella outbreak linked to sprouts has made 22 people sick in Idaho, Montana, Utah and Washington, two of them hospitalized, and Evergreen Fresh Sprouts, LLC is recalling 215 cases of broccoli sprouts carrying UPC 8 38796 00105 1 and five Use By dates from 9/07/26 to 9/16/26. Separately, Houston's Centric Compounding is recalling six lots of injectable Glutathione, Myer’s Cocktail and Tri-Immune Boost vials — shipped nationwide, including straight to patients' homes — after finding they were compounded with a Glutathione ingredient containing elevated endotoxin levels; the company has received nine reports of reactions. Both notices are company announcements posted by the FDA, and both ask for the same thing: match the code, and throw it out.
