Everyone likes their coffee a little different. Some prefer cream and sugar. Some love flavors like caramel or french vanilla creamers. While others drink it black. But I think we can all agree that none of us want glass added to our cup of joe!
Dollar General is recalling their Clover Valley Instant Coffee. The eight-ounce instant coffee were recalled due to the potential presence of glass fragments. The coffee was sold and distributed in all states (except Hawaii and Alaska) between July 9th and 21st.
Customers are advised to dispose of the product and contact Dollar General for a full refund. The investigation into how the glass may have gotten into the coffee is still ongoing.
Customers can find the lot and best by date information around the neck of the unit.
