Over 10,000 cans of Original Coca-Cola have been recalled due to the potential presence of a foreign material, specifically plastic. The recall was initiated by a Coca-Cola manufacturer on March 6 and the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) classified the recall on March 24. 864 12-packs of Coca-Cola cans have been recalled in total.
The FDA declared it a “Class II” recall, meaning the product has the potential to cause “temporary” or “reversible” health consequences.
How to Identify the Recalled Coca-Cola Cans
The recall impacts specific cans of Coca-Cola that were manufactured by Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Only a certain batch of 12-ounce Coca-Cola Original cans that were distributed in Illinois and Wisconsin are impacted by this recall.
To determine whether you have the recalled Coke, you’ll want to look for the following information on the can or box:
- Can UPC: 0 49000-00634 6
- Pack UPC: UPC 0 49000-02890 4
- Date Code: SEP2925MDA
- Time Stamp: 1100-1253
- “Canned Under Authority of the Coca-Cola Company, Atlanta, GA 30313”
No other Coca-Cola cans or products have been recalled at this time.
What to Do if You Have the Recalled Product
Because the recall was initiated in early March, it’s likely that all the recalled products have been pulled from retailer shelves. However, if you have the recalled Coca-Cola product, do not consume it. Instead, throw it away or return it to the original place of purchase for a full refund or replacement.
