purchased 128 fl oz of Green tea w/Honey and became sick with diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and severe cramps. We had no idea why until the following day when we poured a second glass and saw a gelatinous substance that looked like a ball of mucus pour into the glass.

Poured the remaining liquid into a picture a found a snot ball the near size of a baseball. We were sicken by the substance and knowing we had consumed it. We called Arizona and spoke with quality control and were told this was "Mold" that had grown in the container and the seal probably got broken at some point. Little comfort to us since we were still experiencing symptoms.

We made photo's and video of the whole ordeal and posted on Facebook. The company wanted to blame the distributor and store and the other two wanted to blame the manufacture. This is the most shocking thing of all. The store refused to remove the items from the shelves stating the appear find.

we went to the store armed with a LED flashlight and discovered the same situation existed in the other shelved tea's and then showed the management who only then decided to remove them from public sale. How many went to unsuspecting households?

who really knows, but be vigilant and take a flashlight when buying these tea's, or it could result in becoming ill or worse dependent on your immune system. we lost time from work from the whole ordeal and emotional scarred.

Monetary Loss: $700.

Location: Applegate, Michigan

Today we purchased a can of Arizona sweet tea and my daughter felt something in her mouth spit it out and it was a huge ball of mucus so worried about it and sicken that it is actually something that is happening to others this is the last purchase we will ever make from Arizona tea company

We just experienced the same with a can of Arizona Sweet Tea. My husband took the first sip and thought it tasted almost fermented but wasn't sure and then the mucus-y blob went into my mouth when I took a sip.

The expiration date is Oct 12, 2023. I'm not sure how the seal can be broken on a can without it spilling?

I purchased 2 jugs of watermelon Arizona tea from walgreens address 12750 Jefferson Avenue Newport News,Virginia 23602 store number 06923 telephone number of store is 757-833-**** and my drink had some type of mucus slime in it and the expiration year says 2021 I am pregnant and was put at risk I did sip it thats when I noticed and I'm concerned !!!I even shook the drink before I opened it.

Guest

Even though I spit most of it out. I drank a little.

I am okay physically. :)

I only notice it forms enough to notice after about 3 days without putting it in the fridge w cap on. At that point I just throw away whatever is left.

Probably should just put it in the fridge after opening it because then it takes weeks for whatever that is to grow to a noticeable amount. I was hoping it was something special.

I've never knowingly drank it because when the unexpecting semi solid drink entered my mouth I immediately expelled the substance in profound discuss and confusion! Learning quickly what was needed to prevent this in my future[refrigeration].

Just happened to me with a 960mL carton of the Arizona Green Tea with honey. My wife and I were driving home from BC and I drank straight from the carton.

That nasty blob came out into my mouth. She poured the rest out while I tried to spit out as much as I could.

This just happened. Hoping I donโ€™t get sick.Wes

I was searching this kind of situation because I just drank mucus tea's tea half and half peach tea.. It's so disgusting and I will never ever buy that product

Guest

I also had the same problem just recently with Arizona product. I contacted the company several times left my phone number and e-mail no one respond back.

I wonder what is this substance because I went to the emergency room right after coming in contact with this. If I get no respond from Arizona Company I the next few days I will be contacting poison control

Guest

:( This angers me, and the lack of industry responsibility to the public. Should we really be surprised with what we find in our food source today? Perhaps not, but we should be clearly concerned and alarmed.
