Diva Fam Inc. Announces Voluntary Recall of True Sea Moss “Sea Moss Gel Superfood” Products Due to Possible Health Risk
Diva Fam Inc. is recalling all True Sea Moss Sea Moss Gel Superfood flavors nationwide due to missing pH/temperature records and potential botulism risk.
Diva Fam Inc.. announced a voluntary recall of all lots and flavors of its True Sea Moss brand Sea Moss Gel Superfood due to a lack of required regulatory authorization and temperature monitoring records for pH-controlled food products, according to a company statement released January 9, 2026.
The company said the recall applies to products manufactured prior to January 9, 2026. The manufacture date (MFD) is indicated on the can lid in MM/YYYY format.
Why the products are being recalled
Diva Fam said the recall is related to missing required regulatory authorization and temperature monitoring records for certain pH-controlled food products. The company noted that pH-controlled foods that are not manufactured in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements may present a potential risk of microbial growth, including organisms that can produce toxins associated with botulism.
Botulism is a rare but serious illness that can affect the nervous system. Symptoms may include general weakness, dizziness, double vision, difficulty speaking or swallowing, and, in severe cases, difficulty breathing or muscle weakness.
Diva Fam said no illnesses or adverse health events have been reported in connection with the products subject to this recall to date.
Where the products were sold
The affected products were distributed nationwide through select retail locations, online via https://truеsеamоss.cоm/, and other distribution channels, according to the company.

Mix a Little Luck into Your Big Game Menu

Mix a Little Luck into Your Big Game Menu
(Family Features) Picture this: Your team is down three points, but the taste of victory is just one field goal away. Sometimes, all you need is a little luck and a whole lot of guac. After all, an estimated 250 million pounds of avocados are consumed during the Big Game each year, according to Hass Avocado Board Volume Data. That’s enough to fill 30 million football helmets with guac – but filling your belly instead is a win-win for good luck and great flavor. Dip into good fortune this football season with help from Avocado From Mexico’s Guac Guru, Rob Riggle, whose visionary Good Luck Guac recipe is ready to share just in time for the Big Game. Whether you’re in it for the football, the commercials or the snacks, this recipe can score major points with your entire crew.
Crafted for fans of every team, this bold, golden twist on a favorite football snack is infused with ingredients associated with good luck – edible gold flakes and pomegranate seeds – to get you through the most nail-biting moments of the game. The star ingredient is fresh, high-quality Avocados From Mexico that offer good taste, good nutrition, and good times. Beyond delicious dips, chips and lots of fun, hosting a watch party can also be a lot of work. Make sure your hosting duties don’t create interference or put you on the sidelines with these tips: Get a jumpstart on party prep. The day before the game, tidy up your space and prepare as much of the food as you can. For dishes best served fresh – like guac – take care of the ingredient prep, like chopping veggies. Create comfortable seating and viewing areas. For a watch party, you’ll want plenty of room for guests to sit comfortably where they can see the screen and have easy access to the guac. If there’s not enough space in the living room to fit everyone, consider bringing a TV to the kitchen so people can snack and watch at the same time. Know your guests. From non-alcoholic beverage options to additional entertainment like board games and kid-friendly activities, become a next-level party host by providing a setup tailored to your guests’ needs. One thing almost everyonecan agree on: Guac made with Avocados From Mexico can be the star of nearly any party’s snacking lineup. Make it your team’s lucky day with more game day recipes at AvocadosFromMexico.com/recipe.

Ghirardelli Brings Back the Chocolocket for Valentine’s Day—Now Made for “Perfect Pairs”
Ghirardelli reintroduces the Chocolocket for Valentine’s Day 2026, featuring a pair designed for sharing. This limited edition celebrates all meaningful duos, emphasizing inclusive connections through chocolate and personalized gifting.
Ghirardelli is putting a new spin on Valentine’s Day this year with the return of its viral limited-edition gift: the Chocolocket. The big twist for 2026? Each set includes two Chocolockets—built for sharing with your “perfect pair,” whether that’s your partner, your best friend, your sibling, or the coworker who keeps your week running.
The campaign centers on Perfect Pairs Day, a broader take on the holiday that celebrates the meaningful duos in our lives—romantic and not-so-romantic. Think: work besties, pickleball partners, brunch buddies, squadmates, travel twins, and more.
What is a Chocolocket?
If you missed the first wave, here’s the quick version: the Chocolocket is a custom-crafted 14K gold-plated locketdesigned to hold one mini GHIRARDELLI® SQUARES® inside. The keepsake is styled to resemble Ghirardelli’s iconic gold-foil wrapped SQUARES, turning a familiar candy shape into a wearable, giftable moment.
It’s part novelty, part collectible, and part snack—because yes, it’s literally designed to carry chocolate.
The “Perfect Pairs” idea (and why it works)
Ghirardelli is leaning into a simple truth: the best moments are usually shared. In the brand’s words, the Chocolocket is meant as a playful tribute to the people who make life sweeter—whether that’s a romantic partner or the friend who always shows up.
Bobby Oliver, Ghirardelli’s VP of Marketing, framed it as a celebration of all kinds of connections—best friends, siblings, coworkers, and couples—tying the message back to a classic pairing: chocolate and caramel.
The result is a Valentine’s concept that feels less like a single-lane “couples only” holiday and more like an invitation to include the people who actually fill your calendar.
What comes in the 2026 set
This year’s edition launches as a matching pair of Chocolockets—one for you, one for your person. Each set includes:
- Two Chocolockets (a matching pair)
- A bag of mini Ghirardelli SQUARES® to enjoy together
- A heart-shaped tin
- A personalized message celebrating your “perfect pair” category (examples include Soulmates, Work Besties, Pickleball Partners, Brunch Buddies, Dinner Dates, Squadmates, Travel Twins, and more)
- Shipping included
It’s also limited to one set per household, which signals this is meant to stay in “special drop” territory.
Release date + where to buy
The limited-edition Chocolocket set will be available starting February 10 at Chocolocket.com, while supplies last.
For updates, Ghirardelli is directing fans to follow @Ghirardelli on Instagram and TikTok.
A quick refresher on Ghirardelli
Founded in San Francisco in 1852, Ghirardelli is known for its premium chocolate and its bean-to-bar approach. The company emphasizes control over the full process—from cocoa sourcing through production—using a proprietary bean blend and specific roasting/processing methods.
In other words: the brand’s long-standing quality story is still the backbone, even when the product is a playful, social-media-friendly collectible.
Bottom line
The Chocolocket’s return isn’t just a Valentine’s gimmick—it’s a smart “shareable” product idea that matches how people actually celebrate: with the person who feels like the right fit, whatever the label.
If you’re the type who likes limited drops, keepsakes, or gifts that come with a built-in story, this one’s worth watching when it goes live on February 10.
