Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, July 08, 2025

Costco is recalling nearly a dozen products and urging shoppers to immediately stop using some items purchased either through Costco Next or directly in stores. The recall includes several electronics with potential safety hazards. Anker Power Bank and PowerCore models have been flagged due to issues with their lithium batteries. The Danby 8-K U-shaped window air conditioner should be immediately stopped use because of water collection problems that can lead to mold growth. These units were sold under various brands including Midea, Comfort Aire, Danby, and Frigidaire. Other recalled items include car tires, dumbbells, Topo Chico mineral water, and Fresh and Ready Foods prepared sandwiches and salads. The mineral water may be contaminated with pseudomonas and the prepared meals may be tainted with listeria. The SharkNinja pressure cooker lid comes off and can burn consumers.

Another problem with consumer safety for Americans. Costco is a fairly reputable company, but they are dependent on their suppliers to provide quality assurance for the products they sell. Some of the same suspects emerged: potential listeria in the prepared foods and lithium-ion battery problems, amongst other issues.
