Capri Sun juice pouches are a refreshing treat for kids and adults alike. That's why one mom was freaked out when she found something in her kid's juice pouch that shouldn't have been there. She got on TikTok to share what she found and warn other parents to be on the lookout, too.

Haley Crider, a TikTok user, made a short video sharing that she found something "floating" in her son's Capri Sun pouch. Crider shared that she cuts the pouch open to pour into a different sippy cup for her son, and thanks to that, she found that something wasn't right. She also mentioned that the juice didn't expire until August, so they should have been fine.
"CHECK YOUR KIDS Capri Suns i cut the top off to pour it into my sons sippy cup and seen stuff floating in it! Then i grab the last 2 and cut them open and they were okay but im so glad i caught it before i gave it to him!" Crider captioned the post, adding the hashtags #caprisun #gross #floating #kids #parents #toddler and tagging Capri Sun.
Some commenters alleged the floating object was mold, while others were unsure what it could be.
"This is why I don’t buy capri sun. This has been an issue for years now!" one person commented.
"Y’all dont remember when someone found worms and such in their caprisuns and then caprisun came out with the clear bottoms?" another asked.
"Sadly its why i’ve always tried to stay away from juice boxes/juice pouches in general cus u cant see inside ," someone else added.
"I'd recommend taking pictures and document the batch number for the box if possible and let the company know?" someone suggested.
As many people in the comments pointed out, Capri Sun has been plagued with issues of people finding things in their drinks for years. And as a result, the company switched to pouches with a clear bottom. In 2014, Mashed.com wrote an article detailing the issue, saying Capri Sun "launched a new pouch with a clear bottom to let moms ‘see the goodness before it’s gulped.’ Or spot the mold before it’s gulped."
