Recall roundup: Cold coffee cans, Ram trucks, garden lights recalled

Death Wish Coffee recalls cold products

SAN ANTONIO – Cold coffee cans, Dodge Ram trucks, garden lights and children's slap bracelets are part of this recall roundup.

Death Wish Coffee Co., which claims to make the world's strongest coffee, has recalled certain cold cans over concerns they may contain a deadly toxin.

The company is recalling its 11-oz. Death Wish Nitro Cold Brew cans because of concerns that the manufacturing process could lead to botulism, a potentially fatal food poisoning. In its announcement, the company said no illnesses have been reported.

"Our customers' safety is of paramount importance and Death Wish Coffee is taking this significant, proactive step," the statement said in part.

Production is also halted until an additional step in the manufacturing process is implemented.

Consumers are urged to dispose of the product or return it for a refund.
