Some Coca-Cola products are being recalled over the potential presence of foreign material in the products, according to federal officials.
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 are included in the recall, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The products are considered Class II recalls, which is when the use or exposure to a product “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote,” according to the FDA’s website.
