This pasteurization method disrupts microbes through intense pressure, offering an alternative to traditional heat treatments for food safety and quality. The process leverages isostatic pressure to inactivate microbes by denaturing proteins and disrupting cell membranes, preserving the food's chemical composition and extending shelf life.

Some High Noon Beach Variety 12-packs have been recalled because they may contain vodka seltzer beverages mislabeled as energy drinks.
