The FDA indicated that a foodborne illness could have contaminated these drinks, as part of the production process might not have undergone the necessary high-pressure treatment to extend the shelf life and prevent spoilage. There's a potential risk of pathogens such as salmonella, listeria, and E. coli in these products. Salmonella infection usually isn't life-threatening however,  according to the Mayo Clinic Salmonella can sometimes not be as dangerous as to be expected but in certain people especially infants and young children, older adults, transplant recipients, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems the development of complications can be dangerous if any of these bacteria are present, and consuming the drink could result in illness.
