Our New Cap

Why are the caps on your pouches different than the ones I’m used to seeing?
At GoGo squeeZ, we are always looking for ways to improve our products, packaging, and our impact on the environment and community through continued investments in sustainability. With this in mind, we developed a new cap that uses 40% less plastic than our original helicopter caps. But, rest assured, the product inside has not changed – it’s the same yummy product our fans have come to expect from GoGo squeeZ!
Is the product inside the same?
The recipes in these pouches have not been changed. Only the helicopter cap is different. So, rest assured, it’s the same yummy product our fans have come to expect from GoGo squeeZ!
Are the caps still re-closeable?
Yes! Although the new caps click on rather than twist off, they are still re-closeable
Are you switching to the new cap on all your products?
It will be a gradual process, but our goal is to, eventually, have the new cap on our fruit pouches and fruit and veggie pouches.
Why are there old caps on some pouches I purchased, but new ones on others?
Great question! Our goal is to switch to the new cap on all our Fruit and Fruit & VeggieZ products, but it’s a gradual process that involves careful planning. As we work hard on getting this done, you will see the new cap on more and more pouches on your store shelves.
Are the new caps recyclable?
The caps are made from recyclable material, but we recommend that you check with your local municipality to see if they will accept it in your community. The caps are also accepted by Terracycle.
Can the product spill if I reclose it with the new cap and put it in my bag
No, it should not spill. We have done extensive testing – even tossed pouches in a bag – and we’re pleased to report it does not re-open! Just as before: no spoon, no mess!
Will we see these caps on GGS yogurtZ, smoothieZ, Big squeeZ and Happy TummieZ pouches, too? If so, when?
For now, you will be seeing the new caps on our Fruit and Fruit & VeggieZ pouches, but we’re exploring ways to make other pouches with these awesome new caps, too!

Ingredients

Is GoGo squeeZ® fortified with any vitamins?
We believe in nutritious, simple foods without added ingredients, so GoGo squeeZ® applesauce products are not fortified with additional vitamins or minerals. We do not make a claim related to the naturally occurring level of vitamins in our products due to the variability in vitamin levels that can occur from crop to crop. All vitamins that occur naturally in apples are also present in our applesauce products.
Does your product contain any major allergens?
All GoGo squeeZ® applesauce products are free of the top 9 allergens: egg, dairy, wheat, tree nuts, seafood, shellfish, peanut, soy, or sesame. Our squeezable applesauce pouches are made in a facility that is also free of these noted allergens.
Are all GoGo squeeZ® products Kosher?
With the exception of our AlmondBlend pudding, GoGo squeeZ products are all Kosher Certified by OU Kosher, the world’s largest kosher certification agency.
I see you added Lemon Juice Concentrate to some of your pouches. What led you to change your formula to include lemon juice?
Mother Nature gives each individual apple its own personality with varying levels of acidity, so when needed, we include a splash of lemon juice as a natural way to achieve consistent acidity levels in our products.
What variants will always remain Lemon Juice Concentrate free?
The variants that will remain free of Lemon Juice are: AppleBerry, AppleCherry and Organic AppleBerry.
Do Apple Strawberry and Gimme Five contain Lemon Juice? I do not see them listed on those variants without Lemon Juice, but the label does not mention Lemon Juice.
We are transitioning to include Lemon Juice in these variants.
What steps are you taking to inform consumers of the change?
We have proactively reached out to the communities most impacted by this change, have included news of the change on our website, and have changed the ingredient statements on our labels and on the website.

Packaging

Are GoGo squeeZ® pouches recyclable?
GoGo squeeZ® has teamed up with upcycling and recycling pioneer TerraCycle® Inc., to create a way for families to upcycle their pouches. TerraCycle’s Brigade® programs allow people to collect and upcycle everyday product packaging and contribute to the creation of new, eco-friendly items from post-consumer waste. For each GoGo squeeZ® pouch that TerraCycle receives, the Brigade member earns two points, redeemable for a variety of charitable gifts or a donation of $0.02 to put toward their school, religious organization, community group or charity of their choice. To learn more and to sign up, please visit our TerraCycle page.
What is the inner lining of the pouch made of?
The GoGo squeeZ® pouch lining is made of polyethylene—an inert and safe material that is used for many of the caps on today’s plastic drink bottles.
Do GoGo squeeZ® pouches contain BPA?
No! All of our packaging and pouches are BPA and phthalate free.

Food Safety

Is GoGo squeeZ® safe for kids of all ages?
Kids (and adults!) over three years old can enjoy GoGo squeeZ® at home, at school or anywhere they go. However, GoGo squeeZ® pouches have a removable cap that makes them unsuitable for unsupervised children under 3 years old.
What may cause mold to appear in damaged packages?
If a package becomes damaged, the product can become overly exposed to air. This could make it possible for mold to develop, because GoGo squeeZ® is preservative free. The mold that might occur is a common food mold, similar to what can happen with fresh fruit that has been overly exposed to air. To help ensure freshness, we recommend you refrigerate your pouch after opening and consume within 24 hours. If you think you see mold in your GoGo squeeZ®, do not consume it. Hang on to the pouch, and call us at 1-888-288-7148, email us or use our Contact Us form so we can help you.
What does GoGo squeeZ® do to prevent mold from growing in its preservative-free products?
Please be assured that nothing is more important to us than the quality and safety of our products and satisfying our customers. That’s why we have significant processes in place to ensure our products meet the highest quality standards when they leave our facilities. On the top of stringent quality control standards, all of our production sites have a quality management system in place to drive continuous improvement and to identify as well as implement preventive controls to protect food safety and quality during the production and preparation processes. If you think that you see mold in your GoGo squeeZ®, do not consume it. Hang on to the pouch, and call us at 1-888-288-7148, email us or use our Contact Us form so we can help you.

Arsenic is regularly tested. Give your family a nutritious snack with the knowledge that GoGo squeeZ® has safety top of mind!
Are GoGo SqueeZ® products being recalled in 2023?
There is no recall on any GoGo squeeZ® products in the US, and we are not affiliated with the Wanabana® brand. We are very committed to food safety and quality. To ensure GoGo squeeZ® is up to our 100% squeeZ-able standards, we only source fresh apples and ingredients from growers who apply good ecological practices to grow and harvest fruits.

Why was GoGo Squeez® voluntarily recalled in 2016?
GoGo squeeZ® voluntarily recalled some pouches in 2016 to ensure our products were up to our 100% squeeZ-able standards. In a small number of pouches we found a common mold—the kind that naturally forms on fruit. We have confirmed with an independent lab that tested the mold and an expert microbiologist who determined that it poses no known health risk.
