AI GeneratedFox 5 Atlanta reports on a Kirkland whipped cream recall due to chemical contamination, the birth of a baby two-toed sloth at Zoo Atlanta, and various upcoming local events including the Atlanta Mushroom Festival and a chili cook-off in Dunwoody.
It's time now to check in with our Joyce Lupiani
for a check of the stories that are trending right now
on Fox5Atlanta.com and the Fox Local app.
And the first one you have, Joyce,
this is a big one if you are a Costco shopper here in Georgia.
Right. So yes, if you are a shopper at Costco,
there is a recall for whipped cream right now.
It's the Kirkland brand. You can see it there on the screen.
So one batch of their signature
real heavy whipped cream that was sold here in Georgia
and like 10 other states
has been recalled because it might contain
a small amount of a cleaning chemical.
And the recall covers 15-ounce cans
with the lot code 0402-2027
and the time stamps between 0035 and 245.
So, if you have, like, some of the whipped cream
that has those timestamps and lot code on it,
you need to stop using it if you've already started.
And you can either take it back to Costco, and they'll give you,
like, a full refund, or you can just throw it away.
Now, there hasn't been, like, any reports of, like,
any serious adverse effects yet that require medical care.
care but you know they're obviously wanting
to get ahead of this and make sure that no one
gets a hold of any of this whipped cream
that might have something in it that could cause problems.
And this comes at an interesting time
because we're getting so close to Thanksgiving and
obviously pumpkin pie, a nice little thing
of whipped cream on there could be nice.
Some other different pies, ice cream, things like that.
People are going to be buying hot chocolate.
Exactly.
But those have to have marshmallows.
That is the best way to have it.
It is whipped cream season.
So if you have some, you know,
Kirkland is a really popular brand, Costco.
So, you know, it's a pretty good chance
that you might have some if you've bought any recently.
Certainly bad timing for that one.
Good news, it's only one lot, so hopefully if you did grab it,
it's just a worthwhile, open your fridge, just check it real quick.
Let's talk about this now.
Zoo Atlanta, a new sloth.
They have a new baby. It's a baby Hoffman's two-toed sloth.
And it was born on October 30th.
And it's actually the third baby that Nutella and Coco,
I just love those names. It's the third one
that they've had there at the zoo.
And just in case you don't know a lot about sloths,
so they spend like their entire lives in trees.
And they even like, they eat like
hanging upside down. And when the babies are born,
they're born, you can see they're born with the
fur and their eyes are like wide open
and they already have teeth and they have claws so that
they can hold on, you know, to their moms.
You know, in the wild, sloths face threats like
habitat loss and electrocution and different things like that.
So, you know, we're glad that
That they're here at the zoo where we can keep them safe.
And, uh, hopefully, uh, they will be able to name this, this sloth soon.
Uh, Nutella, I love that name for, is that the father or the mother?
Oh, well, I would assume. Oh, gosh, I don't know.
Yeah, that's why I think I did. Well,
I kind of knew this. But one thing I did learn
when I was like looking at this is they don't
name the babies right away because, you know,
babies are kind of fragile. So they generally
wait a little while to even announce, you know,
that they were born because this one was born
back on the 30th. And then they generally wait like 100 days, maybe.
Anyway, they do wait like
Before they like name the baby
and a lot of times they'll have like little naming contests. So
we'll just have to wait and see what Zoo Atlanta is going to do. But
yeah, love babies, any kind of babies. Yeah.
I'm not sure if you'll be able to see them this
weekend if you go, but you head out to Zoo Atlanta,
the pandas are definitely there.
What are some of the other things that we can do this weekend?
Oh well, we have a big list as usual on our website
and some of the events this week is
the Atlanta Mushroom Festival.
I know that's pretty popular. That's happening over at Lee
White. Plus, the Atlanta Opera is presenting Silent Night
at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center.
Um, there's like a lot of holiday stuff
that is starting to kick off this weekend and next
weekend.
You know, everybody wants to, uh,
hurry up and get all that holiday stuff out there.
So we do have some of that on our website.
We're going to have a bigger list of holiday stuff later.
But anyway, um, back to this weekend,
one other thing you might want to check out, there's
going to be a chili cook-off over at,
uh, Dunwoody at the Brook Run Park.
And I went to that like a couple of years ago.
Because I really like chili, and it was good.
So hopefully it won't be too cold, but if it is,
you're going to be eating the right kind of food to warm you up.
Yeah, that actually sounds delicious
and probably a great way to keep yourself warm.
