Thousands of Cans Pulled From Shelves in These 2 States

On Monday, the Food and Drug Administration gave the second highest risk level to a recall of Coca-Cola cans.

On March 6, the company initially recalled more than 10,000 cans of Coca-Cola sold in two states due to foreign object contamination.

The recall affects 864 packs of 12 cans of Coca-Cola for a total of 10,368 cans. The recalled cans have the following information:

• Product Description: Coco-Cola Original Taste, 12 Fl Oz
• Can UPC: 0 49000-00634 6
• 12-Can Pack UPC: 0 49000-02890 4
• Date Code: SEP2925MDA
• Time Stamp: 1100-1253

Foreign objects typically enter foods and drinks at some point in the production process and can pose a safety risk if consumed. The FDA report did not mention any injuries in connection to the recalled Coca-Cola.

The FDA report did not include specific instructions for consumers. If you’d like to err on the side of caution, consider disposing the Coca-Cola or returning it to the store.
