Coca-Cola Company announced a recall of its Coke Zero Sugar product in the United Kingdom. This affects the beverage company’s Christmas multipacks.
Coca-Cola is recalling its Zero Sugar 24-can packs due to a mistake in the packing. It was revealed that there are packs that may have been filled with the Original Coke cans instead of the no-sugar variety.
The carbonated soft drink manufacturer explained it is voluntarily calling back the said product because the mix-up may cause issues with customers who are limiting their intake of sugar. Then again, the company clarified through the recall announcement posted by the UK’s Food Standards Agency that only a small batch of the Coca-Cola Zero Sugar multipacks in Christmas box packing is affected.
Also, there is no problem with the Coke beverage itself but just the incorrect placement of the product. Since the cardboard boxes are labeled Coke Zero Sugar, they cannot contain the Original Coke version, which obviously has sugar as an ingredient.
The FSA and Coca-Cola warned customers about the potential risk if they need to manage their sugar levels. They might mistakenly drink the Original Coke since the label on the box indicates the cans inside are zero sugar.
Coca-Cola also issued an apology for the mix-up error and told customers to call 0800 22 77 11 in case they purchased the 24-can Zero Sugar pack with the Original Taste cans inside. As mentioned on Western Telegraph, the specific batch that is included in the recall has these codes: 301WA1, 302WA1, 303WA1, 304WA1, 305WA5, 306WA5, 307WA5, and 308WA5.
Their best-before dates are Oct. 31, 2023 and Nov. 30, 2023. The multipack has 24 cans of 330 ml. Coke soft drink.
"Coca-Cola is recalling the above product. Point of sale notices will be displayed in all retail stores that are selling this product,” the FSA stated in the recall. "These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product."
