Check Cider Labels
Unpasteurized juice or cider can cause serious illness or death if consumed by children, according to the Food and Drug Administration. Be aware that some juices sold in refrigerated cases of grocery and health food stores or at cider mills or farmers markets may not be safe. Look for labels confirming that the juices have been pasteurized.
