Coca-Cola recalls ‘zero sugar’ drink

Coca-Cola has recalled one of its top-selling ‘zero sugar’ drinks after finding that it does contain sugar.

The beverage giant issued the recall last month after finding that 13,152 cases of Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade were incorrectly labeled.

The sugar-free drink actually contained 40 grams of sugar per 12-ounce can, the equivalent of four Krispy Kreme donuts or a McDonald’s McFlurry. This is the same amount as the brand’s full-sugar lemonade.

According to an FDA alert, the mislabeled product was shipped to retail stores in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio.

All affected cases, each with 12 cartons of a dozen 12-ounce cans, have been removed from shelves.

A Coca-Cola spokesperson said in a statement: ‘In September, Coca-Cola Consolidated voluntarily recalled a limited quantity of Minute Maid Lemonade 12-ounce cans in parts of Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohio.

‘No impacted product remains in the market, and all recall activities in those markets are complete.’

The FDA advised customers who purchased the drinks to throw them away or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.

The agency classified the recall as Class II, which ‘involves a health hazard situation where there is a remote probability of adverse health consequences from use of the product.’

For example, unknowingly drinking a full-sugar beverage could exacerbate conditions like diabetes, where sugar intake has to be carefully monitored.

The affected drinks included cartons with the codes: FEB1725CNA or FEB1725CNB. The UPC code is 0 25000 12115 9.

Pepsi Recalled

It would be recalled that in April this year, PepsiCo recalled popular soda brand after its sugar content was mislabeled.

The FDA announced that New-York based PepsiCo has voluntarily recalled over 2,000 cases of its Mug Root Beer because the cans actually contained Mug Zero Sugar root beer.

The recall began on March 22, though the FDA announced it Wednesday. The findings was discovered through an ‘internal investigation.’

The FDA’s report states that the 2,801 affected cases were shipped to Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, and Oklahoma.

The affected cans of Mug had the code information ‘JUL2224XXXXAS02234, Best by Date JUL 22 2024.’ It’s unclear if they made it on to store shelves or homes.

The news comes about a week after the company recalled 233 cases of its sugar-free and caffeine-free Schweppes Zero Sugar Ginger Ale because it actually contained ‘full sugar.’

In the case of Schweppes, PepsiCo told DailyMail.com that all impacted products have been removed from store shelves.

However customers who bought the product were advised to throw it away, particularly if they need to monitor their blood sugar, such as in the case of diabetics.

PepsiCo confirmed to DailyMail.com that none of the affected Mug products are on store shelves.
