00:00Costco issues urgent recall over spontaneously exploding bottles.
00:05Prosecco is meant to be popped in celebration, not to explode unexpectedly in someone's kitchen.
00:11Costco recalls Kirkland Signature Prosecco Valdobiadon, due to a risk of spontaneous shattering.
00:17Affected bottles were purchased between April 25th and August 26th in 12 Midwest states.
00:23In a letter to members, Costco gave a stark warning.
00:26If you have an unopened bottle, do not open it. Dispose of the bottle immediately by wrapping
00:30the unopened bottle in paper towels and placing it in a plastic bag before placing it in the
00:35garbage to avoid risk from shattered glass. The company emphasized that customers shouldn't
00:40return the bottles. Instead, a refund is provided upon showing the recall letter at Costco locations.
00:48No serious injuries have occurred, but incidents like Cork's self-launching have been reported.
00:53In one instance, a cork hit a friend's eye as Prosecco splashed at a bridal shower.
00:59The recall is just the latest among several safety alerts for Costco products.
01:04Earlier, the retailer pulled Dubai-style chocolate due to undisclosed gluten.
01:09Anchor Power Bank's A1257 models faced recalls over overheating batteries.
01:14Other incidents include Bowflex dumbbell injuries and bacteria-contaminated Topo Chico mineral
01:19water. Recalls aren't limited to Costco. Walmart recalled 110,000 Paris Hilton mini-beauty fridges
01:26due to safety concerns. Similarly, the FDA recalled over 57,000 burrito meals from Target for undeclared
01:33shrimp. Customers are urged to prioritize safe disposal of affected products over refunds to
01:39prevent injury.
