Everpress Juice's raw greens juices recalled as under-processed across 23 states
A Philadelphia juice maker recalled two JUICE from the Raw greens products, Detox Greens and Sweet Greens, because under-processing left them able to carry pathogenic bacteria; the recall began in July 2025 and posted in February 2026.

Why it happened, in plain English
The filed reason is “under-processed product may contain pathogenic bacteria that could harm to humans.” For a juice, that means the product either did not get a validated 5-log pathogen reduction step, or the firm could not show that it did. The record does not say which pathogen was the concern or whether any product tested positive. It lists quantity as “Unknown,” which is a signal in itself: the firm could not say how much product was affected.
The brand name says “from the Raw.” Untreated juice can be sold at retail direct to consumers with a warning statement, but juice sold through distribution to 23 states, from Alaska to Texas, falls under the juice HACCP rule and needs a documented 5-log process. High-pressure processing is the usual answer for a raw-style juice; the record does not say what this firm used. Seven months passed between initiation and the report posting.
Who else should care
Small cold-pressed juice companies growing from a local direct-to-consumer business into multi-state distribution. The moment product ships to a retailer or distributor, the warning-label route no longer applies and a validated 5-log step does.
Firms that rely on a toll HPP provider should hold that provider’s process validation and per-batch records. Check: whether every juice SKU you ship through distribution has a written HACCP plan with a validated 5-log reduction step, and whether the batch records show it was applied to every lot.
