PepsiCo has initiated a voluntary recall for more than 230 cases of sugar- and caffeine-free Schweppes Ginger Ale for containing “full sugar" and being unsafe to drink.
The corporation behind some of America’s favorite soft drinks issued the recall last month for cases of the product shipped to Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Those cases of Schweppes Ginger Ale, which were labeled as “zero sugar,” contained “full sugar product” during an “internal investigation by the firm,”according to a PepsiCo statement.
About 233 cases were impacted by the recall, which contained an estimated 5,592 soda cans.
The status of the recall is “ongoing," but no injuries or deaths have been reported so far.
PepsiCo confirmed with USA TODAY Wednesday that none of the mislabeled cases are currently for sale or are on shelves.
