Why did Costco recall Cottonelle wipes? | Tim Miles Law Office

Costco recently announced a recall of their Cottonelle Flushable Wipes. The company stated that the wipes may not be as flushable as advertised, and they could clog pipes and cause sewage backups.

This is not the first time that Costco has had to recall products due to faulty labeling. In 2012, the company recalled several types of food items that were mislabeled as organic. In 2013, they recalled a batch of chicken soup that was labeled as gluten-free but actually contained gluten.

The recall of the Cottonelle wipes is just the latest in a string of recalls for products that are not as advertised. It's important for companies to be accurate in their labeling, so that consumers can make informed decisions about the products they purchase. Costco has stated that they are taking steps to improve their labeling process, so that this type of mistake does not happen in the future.

If you have purchased any of the recalled wipes, you can return them to Costco for a full refund.
