Core Event
Admiral Beverage Corporation, an independent Utah-based distributor, voluntarily recalled roughly 77,700 cans of 7UP Tropical that were labeled “Zero Sugar” but actually contain full-sugar soda. The products are 12-ounce cans sold in 12-pack cases and were distributed only within Utah. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classified the recall as a Class II event, indicating that serious health risks are unlikely.
Official Statements & Responses
The company urged consumers to contact its Consumer Care team at 866-824-1711 for questions. Admiral Beverage confirmed that the recall was initiated in August and that the affected cans can be identified by UPC 0 78000 03798 2.
Data & Statistics
Consumer Guidance
The FDA notice did not provide specific disposal instructions, but standard practice advises consumers to follow any product-specific directions, discard the soda, and avoid giving it to others, including food banks. Retailers may accept returns for a full refund. Consumers with concerns are encouraged to call the Keurig Dr Pepper Consumer Care line.
Background & Context
Class II recalls, as defined by the FDA, involve products that could cause temporary or medically reversible health issues, though the likelihood of serious harm is low. This recall follows a labeling error that resulted in full-sugar soda being sold under a “Zero Sugar” label, prompting the precautionary action by the independent bottler and the brand owner.
