Coca-Cola cans recalled over ‘plastic contamination' in 900 cases – two states are affected
COCA-COLA has issued a massive recall involving over 800 items across two states. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sent out a critical alert about the beverage being contaminated with plastic. 2 2 The agency issued an alert over the 864 12-packs of Coca-Cola that were sold in two states earlier this month. On Monday, the FDA classified the alert as a Class II recall meaning it is now "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 contaminated packs were made by the Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC, in Milwaukee, Tennessee, according to the recall. "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 told USA Today through email. "The cases are being withdrawn because they did not meet our high-quality standards."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," they added. Consumers who bought a pack of the popular soda in Illinois or Wisconsin were asked to check for a recall notification from authorities. Those two who purchased the product will be contacted through two or more of the following methods: email, fax, letter, press release, telephone call, or visit. There isn't any specific guidance on how to proceed if a consumer has bought the product already. However, generally, the agency advises consumers to discard the item without consuming it. 'Contaminated' drink recalled over 'toxic substance' inside – 173k bottles were sold at stores like Walmart and Target Coca-Cola did not immediately reply to The U.S. Sun's request for comment. This comes as consumers are dealing with another recall of a very common grocery staple. Customers were cautioned about consuming contaminated tomatoes from two different manufacturers — Williams Farms Repack LLC and Ray & Mascari Inc. The tomatoes were recalled after a possible risk of Salmonella, according to the alert. "Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems," the FDA wrote. "Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain." If Salmonella gets into the bloodstream, there is a chance of contracting more serious illnesses like arterial infections, endocarditis, and arthritis. There have been no reported illnesses relating to Salmonella yet, but consumers who are experiencing symptoms were asked to contact the distributors. In 2025, the FDA issued recall alerts for over 50 food and beverage products. The agency also provides email notifications and updates regarding food, drugs, cosmetics, and medical devices.

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Before you crack open your next can of Coca-Cola, there's yet another food recall you should absolutely know about. According to a report shared by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), select cans of Coca-Cola Original Taste have been voluntarily recalled due to the presence of a foreign object, specifically plastic. The original recall occurred earlier this month and has since been updated to "Class II" by the FDA. The organization states that a Class II recall is one that "may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote." Nearly 900 cases of the sodas, which were available in 12-count packs, were recalled from the states of Illinois and Wisconsin. At this point, no other states are included in the recall. The FDA reports that the recalled sodas were bottled and distributed by Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC, in Milwaukee. For a list of the affected UPC codes, visit the FDA's site.
