Hey, soda lovers! Before you pop open that next can, there's an urgent update you need to be aware of.
The FDA has announced a significant recall of over 10,000 cans of this iconic beverage.
This news is a stark reminder that even the most trusted household brands can face unexpected safety issues.
The recall was set into motion by a Coca-Cola manufacturer on March 6, 2025, and the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) officially classified the recall on March 24.
A total of 864 12-packs of Coca-Cola cans are being pulled from circulation.
The FDA has labeled this a “Class II” recall, which indicates that the product might cause “temporary” or “reversible” health consequences.
In other words, while the risk isn't severe, it's not something to take lightly.
The recall specifically targets a batch of 12-ounce Coca-Cola Original cans that were distributed in Illinois and Wisconsin.
These cans were manufactured by Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC, based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. To check if your can is part of the recall, look for the following details:
No other Coca-Cola products are affected by this recall, so if your can doesn't match these specifics, you're in the clear.
Since the recall happened in early March, it’s likely that all recalled products have been pulled from the shelves.

If you happen to have a can or pack from the recalled batch, the advice is clear: do not drink it. The potential presence of plastic could pose a health risk, and it's not worth taking the chance.
Instead, you should dispose of the product safely or return it to the place of purchase. Most retailers will offer a full refund or a replacement.
