CA Firm Recalls Goat Milk Toddler Formula Due To Concerns for Infant Use

Sammy's Milk, Newport Beach, California, has been asked by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to provide a warning against the use of its Goat Milk Toddler Formula as an infant formula because the FDA is concerned that the formula may not meet all FDA requirements for infant formula and may be unsafe and not provide sufficient nutrition when used as an infant formula. These concerns were provided to Sammy’s Milk in a meeting with FDA this week that identified representations on the Sammy’s Milk website and social media platforms that could be interpreted to indicate the product is safe for infants to consume.

While Sammy’s Milk is specifically formulated for children between the ages of 12 and 36 months. it does not recommend the use of Goat Milk Toddler Formula for infants under 12 months of age.  However, the concern is that people may use it as a formula for this younger age group.
