Recall of Popular Soft Drink Hits 77,000 Cans After Zero-Sugar Labels Found on Full-Sugar Soda
The recall covers 3,240 cases and 77,760 cans after mislabeled zero-sugar cans were found to contain 38 grams of sugar each.
- On Sept. 30, the Food and Drug Administration announced a recall of 77,760 cans of 7UP Tropical distributed in Utah by Admiral Beverage Corporation, where packages labeled Zero Sugar contain the full-sugar formula.
- The labeling error affects 3,240 cases of 12-ounce cans, which consumers can identify by lot number UT06176, UPC 0 78000 03798 2, and a best-by date of March 17, 2027.
- Because the full-sugar version contains 38 grams of sugar per can, the FDA designated this a Class II recall, indicating the product may cause temporary or medically reversible health consequences.
- Consumers can return the soda to the place of purchase for a full refund or discard it, though Admiral Beverage Corporation initiated this voluntary recall on Aug. 20.
- While the FDA did not formally classify the recall until Sept. 29, it is unlikely mislabeled cans remain on shelves because Admiral Beverage Corporation began the voluntary process over a month ago.
