My mom placed an order yesterday for the apples and called the Q today to cancel. They told her Mrs. Prindables was not one of the companies involved with the tainted apples.

"CDC recommends that U.S. consumers do not eat any commercially produced, prepackaged caramel apples."


While I, personally, think there is no reason to worry, there is also no reason to take a chance. How in the world can I give these as gifts now? Stink! Smiley Sad

I called and got a refund. QVC read me a statement saying Mrs Prindables was exempt, but since they couldn't provide anything in writing,I didn't want to chance it. I checked Mrs Prindables website and CDC WEBSITE. No one had a list of exempt companies. To me, if Prindables apples are not affected, that should've been the first thing on their website today. I ordered over 50 apples for a party I'm hosting, and it's not worth the risk. Glad I got my refund and and apples are going in the trash.

I just got my box of Mrs.Prindables. So good...then the hubs and I saw the news..after careful contemplation we decided that if we have to go Mrs Prinables apples are not the worst way to die. We're going to enjoy ours. The pink ladies are divine.

The government recommends that we not do a lot of things. The only way a Mrs. Prindable would kill you is if you choked on that stick.

I am now unable to give these as Xmas gifts. No one will want them. I am hoping for a refund from QVC.

I purchased the 16 piece candy bar apples assortment and was so excited about taking and sharing them with our friends at a Christmas party tonight. With as many as 100 people including half of the them small children, how can I in good conscience take and serve these? The CDC has not named the companies involved yet but they did say DO NOT EAT ANY caramel apples.
