In the world of fizzy refreshments, a recent unexpected event has bubbled up– a recall! WHo would’ve thought the bubbly goodness could potentially harbor some mysterious foreign material? But fear not, your favorite sips might just be safe and sound. This episode might just make us appreciate those trusty sodas a tad more, knowing that even the fizz can have its surprises. More on this below.
United Packers LLC and Coca-Cola recently made a voluntary recall of 1,557 cases encompassing various 12-ounce products due to potential foreign material contamination. The affected products included Diet Coke, Fanta Orange, and Sprite.
The recall, initiated on November 6, was a precautionary measure taken in response to reports of possible foreign material found in some of the 12-ounce beverages. Interestingly, this recall wasn’t widely publicized to consumers.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) mentioned that Diet Coke cans comprised less than a quarter of the recalled products. These cases were shipped from Alabama to distribution points in Florida, Mississippi, and Alabama itself.
Regarding the recall’s scope, a spokesperson from Coca-Cola Bottling UNITED explained to Fox News that a specific number of Fanta Orange, Sprite, and Diet Coke units were recalled from 48 stores in Valparaiso, FL; Robertsdale and Mobile, AL; Gulfport and Ocean Springs, MS. The spokesperson assured that no affected products were left in the market, and all necessary recall procedures in those areas had been successfully completed.
Fox also reported that besides the popular Coca-Cola products like Sprite, Fresca, and Fanta Orange, the company manufactures other beverages such as Topo Chico, Powerade, Desani, and Minute Maid. A recent company report highlighted that Coca-Cola products alone contribute to approximately 2.2 billion of the estimated 64 billion servings of all beverages consumed worldwide on a daily basis.
