The recall was initiated on September 10 with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA).

The recalled products are 12-ounce cans of Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade with the following codes found on the products: FEB1725CNA and FEB1725CNB. They were shipped to retail locations in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio.
Coca-Cola nor the FDA has provided information about whether the recalled products have been removed from store shelves. They may be still available for sale. Check the labels before you purchase. If you have purchased or have the recalled product, discard it or return it to the place of purchase for a refund.
