Dr Pepper Has Recalled Thousands of Cases of Soda
In perhaps the funniest mislabeling blunder ever, Pepsi Beverages Company is recalling over 19,000 cases of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar products because they actually do, in fact, contain sugar. Whoops! The Class II recall has a low risk of serious health consequences, but temporary or reversible effects may occur, according to the FDA. To date, no illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported. While the recall pertains to a large amount of product, the sodas in question were only distributed to retail locations in three states—Florida, South Carolina, and Georgia. The affected products were packaged in 12 fl oz. aluminum cans in both 12-pack and 24-pack cartons and have a "best by" date of February 16, 2026 and product code XXXXRS05165. While the average consumer might not have issues with accidentally consuming these mislabeled products, the error could indeed pose health risks for people with diabetes or anyone with conditions instructed to monitor their sugar intake. A can of regular Dr Pepper contains 39 grams of sugar, while Dr Pepper Zero Sugar, obviously is meant to contain zero. The latter does, however, contain artificial sweeteners and additional ingredients like aspartame, acesulfame potassium, and sodium phosphate. Good thing we have a doctor in the house. All recalled products should either be thrown away or returned to your place of purchase. You Might Also Like Can Apple Cider Vinegar Lead to Weight Loss?

Urgent recall for 19,000 Dr Pepper Zero Sugar cans over 'serious' health risk
More than 19,000 cans of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar have been recalled in the US over fears of 'serious adverse health consequences' to some consumers. The 19,203 cans have been recalled by Pepsi Beverages Company, which is licensed to manufacture Keurig Dr Pepper products, due to mislabeling. 'Product labeled to be Zero Sugar contains full sugar product,' states a notice published by the nation's agency tasked with ensuring food, drugs and products are safe for the public. People with diabetes and others who are sensitive to sugar could become seriously ill. The affected soda was packaged in aluminum cans and sold in packs of 12 and 24. They have the best by date of February 16, 2026, and the product code XXXXRS05165. More Trending They were shipped to three US states: Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. The company initiated a voluntary recall on May 23 of this year, but the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reclassified it to a Class II level on Thursday. 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', according to the FDA. The reclassification comes days after the Coca-Cola Company recalled 'limited quantities' of its Topo Chico mineral water sent to five US states over possible bacterial contamination. The affected Topo Chico bottles were sent to 40 retail locations in Arizona, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas.

FDA Announces Recall on More Than 19,000 Cases of Dr Pepper for Mislabeling
According to a notice posted by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), more than 19,200 12- and 24-pack cases of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar have been recalled. The recall was initiated after the soda, which is labeled as 'zero sugar,' was found to contain full sugar. The recalled cases of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar were produced by Jacksonville, Florida-based Pepsi Beverages Company, which is licensed to manufacture Keurig Dr Pepper-owned products including Dr Pepper. The soda was distributed to retailers in three states: Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. To identify if you have the recalled Dr Pepper, you should check for the following information: 12- or 24-pack carton cases of 12-fluid ounce aluminum cans of Dr Pepper, Zero Sugar Prod Code: XXXXRS05165 "Best By" Date: Feb. 16, 2026 The recall was initiated on May 23, 2025, with the FDA classifying it as a Class II recall—meaning drinking the product could cause 'temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences'—on June 5, 2025. Because Pepsi Beverages Company initiated the recall at the end of May, it is likely that the products have been pulled from retailer shelves by now; however, you should check to code number just to be sure. No other Dr Pepper Zero Sugar cases or Dr Pepper products are impacted by this recall. If you have the recalled Dr Pepper Zero Sugar and are someone who is monitoring and controlling their sugar intake for medical reasons, it may not be safe to consume the soda. If that's the case, you should throw it away or return it to the original place of purchase for a full refund or replacement. If you are not monitoring your sugar intake, you do not need to do anything regarding this recall. The product was recalled for mislabeling, not because it is inherently harmful to consume. The full-sugar soda just may have a different flavor than anticipated. However, if you do wish to receive the zero-sugar Dr Pepper that you intended to purchase, you can return it to the original place of purchase for a replacement or full refund.
