Coca-Cola Europacific Partners recalls a small range of soft drinks as a precaution because of elevated levels of Chlorate

What happened

Coco-Cola Europacific Partners is taking the precautionary step of recalling a small number of their soft drinks range because they may contain elevated levels of Chlorate. This poses a low food safety risk especially when only consumed occasionally, however consumers who are sensitive to chlorate and have pre-existing mild to moderate iodine deficiency may be more adversely affected. Standard dimension cans, all glass and plastic bottles sold in the UK are not impacted. Only the products listed below are affected. Images of products affected are attached below. In addition to the batch codes and the best before, it is important for consumers to also check the production codes that can be found on the bottom of the can. Only production codes from 328 GE to 338 GE are included in the product recall.
