Possible mold found inside fruit drink

ELK GROVE, Calif.

Two children grabbed two Capri Suns, but nothing came out of one of the drinks because something was stuck in the straw. That something they say looked like a worm.

"It was like slimy and like whitish like pink. It was just like it was gross," said Ashley Hibbard.

Even though it looks like a worm, Kraft Foods, the company behind Capri Sun, says it may be mold.

Kraft offered the family a replacement case, but they weren't interested.

Kraft Foods says ihas spent more than $ 2 million to make the drink's pouches stronger.

They suggest parents check for leaks before giving them to their kids.

Hibbard has now switched to a drink with a clear container so there is no chance of any more slimy surprises.
