The Coca-Cola Company Recalls Several Products Over Possible Foreign Metals

Several Minute Maid products have been recalled over concerns that foreign metal objects are in the items.

According to Food Safety News, USA Today reports, the Coca-Cola company – which owns Minute Maid – has recalled multiple products because some of the items might contain foreign metal products, including bolts or washers.

The items in question include certain quantities of refrigerated Minute Maid Berry Punch, Strawberry Lemonade, and Fruit Punch in 59-ounce cartons, USA Today reports. New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Maryland, Maine, New Jersey and Connecticut all received the products during distribution, according to Coca-Cola spokesperson Ann L. Moore.

The company announced the recall on Nov. 10. The affected stores are almost finished with removing the items. However, those who may have already purchased the items are encouraged to throw the products out immediately. The recalled items have an expiration date that runs through 2022.

In addition to the Minute Maid products, Coca-Cola has also recalled some select cans of Coca-Cola and Sprite. The soda recall was issued in late November and has an expiration date of 2022.
