Coca-Cola recalls 3 popular sodas over concerns of foreign material contamination

Some Coca-Cola Products Recalled Due to Foreign Material Concerns

According to federal officials, certain Coca-Cola products are being recalled due to the potential presence of foreign material in the products.

The recall includes about 1,115 units of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar 12-ounce cans in 12 and 35 packs, 2,322 units of Coca-Cola 12-ounce cans in 24 and 35 packs, and 791 units of Sprite 12-ounce cans in 12 and 35 packs, as reported by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The FDA has classified the recall as Class II, indicating that the use or exposure to the products may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages LLC, based in Texas, initiated the recall on Oct. 3, and the FDA issued the Class II classification a few weeks later.

When approached for comment, Coca-Cola informed FOX Business that the recalled products were distributed in the McAllen/Rio Grande Valley and San Antonio areas of Texas.

The recall was limited to these specific areas, and all affected products were removed from store shelves by Oct. 10 as a precautionary measure.
