Coca-Cola recalled due to possible plastic contamination: See the affected states
If you've recently purchased a 12-pack of Coca-Cola, there's a recall you should be aware of. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recalled 864 12-packs of Coca-Cola sold in two states earlier this month, and on Monday the agency classified it as a Class II recall. According to the FDA, a Class II recall is "a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote." The recall, which affects more than 10,000 cans of Coca-Cola, were recalled because they may have been contaminated with a foreign object: plastic. The FDA did not mention any injuries or illnesses in connection with the recall. The recalled beverages were bottled and distributed by Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC, in Milwaukee, according to the FDA. "Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling is voluntarily recalling 864 cases of 12-pack Coca-Cola Classic in 12-oz cans in Illinois and Wisconsin," a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement to USA TODAY Wednesday. "The cases are being withdrawn because they did not meet our high-quality standards. We are taking this voluntary action because nothing is more important to us than providing high-quality products to the people who drink our beverages," the spokesperson in the statement. The Coca-Cola being recalled was sold in Illinois and Wisconsin. Recall alert: Nearly 30,000 pounds of Chomps Beef Sticks recalled over potential metal in meat The specific product codes of the affected packs and cans can be found on the FDA's website. The beverages were distributed to retailers and stores in Illinois and Wisconsin. The FDA did not specify what customers should do if they purchased the recalled sodas.

The USDA Is Recalling Nearly 30,000 Pounds of Beef Sticks After Customers Found ‘Pieces of Metal' Inside
If you recently purchased beef sticks for a quick snack, then it's time to check your pantry. On Thursday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a recall for 29,541 pounds — or a little more than 14 tons — of Chomps ready-to-eat beef sticks, manufactured by Idaho Smokehouse Partners, as they may be contaminated with a "foreign material," specifically metal. As the FSIS explained, the Chomps Beef Sticks were produced between January 13 and January 15, 2025. The recall involves 1.15-ounce vacuum-sealed packages of 'Chomps Original Beef Sticks Mild,' which have an expiration date of February 10, 2026. The notice also mentioned that the lot code for the recalled sticks is 25016, and the establishment number is 6220A, both of which are printed on the packaging. The sticks were shipped to retail locations throughout California and Illinois. Related: Recalls Are Rising: This Is How Food Safety Experts Decide What's Safe to Eat According to the notice, the issue was first discovered after the manufacturer informed the FSIS that it "received two consumer complaints reporting that pieces of metal were found in the product." However, it's important to note that neither the company nor the FSIS has received any confirmed reports of injuries related to the product. The organization stated that if you are concerned you may have ingested something while consuming the product, you should contact your personal healthcare provider. Additionally, the FSIS noted that the product may no longer be on store shelves, but it may still be in people's pantries, so it's sending the recall notice out of an abundance of caution. It urges anyone who believes they purchased the product to check their cupboards and, if they do have any, to discard them immediately or return them to their place of purchase. Anyone with questions about this recall can contact Idaho Smokehouse Partners directly at 208-227-5282. This isn't the only recent recall due to foreign objects. On March 13, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published a recall notice for 197,808 cans — or 8,242 cases — of Good & Gather Cut Green Beans over the potential presence of a 'foreign object." However, this notice did not detail what that object could be.
