PepsiCo Inc. issued a recall for Starbucks Frappuccino coffee drink bottles. The beverage manufacturer wants more than 25,000 cases of the frappuccino in bottles back after foreign objects were detected in the drinks.
PepsiCo recalls Starbucks Frappuccino vanilla drinks for possible glass contamination. The company said that the affected ready-to-drink products were distributed across the United States.
Moreover, the American food and beverage firm said it voluntarily recalled the vanilla frap, and this was done on behalf of its partnership with Starbucks Coffee. According to Fox Business, the company did not exactly mention why it is recalling the products. Still, in a note that was posted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) on its website, it said that the cause was the presence of a "foreign object" that was identified as glass.
The FDA placed this recall under "Class II", which means exposure or use of the product may lead to temporary or medically reversible adverse health effects. The probability of serious negative health consequences is also said to be remote.
PepsiCo has been selling and distributing Starbucks RTD coffee and energy drinks as part of its partnership deal with the coffee chain. Since it is the distributor, it is the one removing the vanilla frap bottled beverage in groceries and other retailers.
The products have best-before dates of Mar. 8, May 29, June 4, and June 10, 2023. PepsiCo said that these are not sold in any Starbucks stores.
"The North American Coffee Partnership is committed to a high level of quality in the products we serve," PepsiCo said in a statement regarding the recall. "Delivering a quality experience to our consumers is our top priority, and we always act with an abundance of caution whenever a potential concern is raised."
ABC News reported there is no additional information about the recall from the FDA or PepsiCo. However, consumers are encouraged to contact the company to get more information.
