Coca-Cola recalls thousands of cases of mislabeled ‘zero sugar’ lemonade for containing sugar

Coca-Cola recalls thousands of cases of mislabeled ‘zero sugar’ lemonade for containing sugar

Thousands of cases of improperly labeled Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade have been recalled after they were found to contain the regular formula of lemonade with 40 grams of sugar, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Approximately 13,152 cases of mislabeled lemonade, each including 12 cans of the mistakenly sugary drink, were shipped to retail stores in Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio.

In addition to the 40 grams of sugar, regular Minute Maid Lemonade contains 30 times the calories and over 20 times the total carbs of Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade, according to the nutritional facts listed on Instacart.

Coca-Cola issued the recall on September 10, but a press release was never publicized, according to the FDA’s enforcement report.

The FDA classified the recall as Class II, which “involves a health hazard situation where there is a remote probability of adverse health consequences from use of the product.”

Concerned consumers can distinguish affected cans by searching for the codes “FEB1725CNA” and “FEB1725CNB” printed on the carton and the bottom of the cans.

Coca-Cola has not responded to NBC News’ request for comment.
