NEED TO KNOW

The FDA has issued a recall impacting 70,000 cans of Coca-Cola products in Texas

Foreign metal materials were reported in the products recalled

A similar recall was issued in March for products sold in Wisconsin and Illinois

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a recall on thousands of cans of Coca-Cola products on Thursday, Oct. 23.

The FDA said in a report that the recall is due to a "potential presence of foreign material (metal) in the product." The sodas being recalled are 12- and 35-packs of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, 24- and 35-packs of Coca-Cola and 12- and 35-packs of Sprite. As of publication, the recall is only in effect for Texas.

The potential metal fragments found in the cans can lead to illness or injuries when ingested, according to EatingWell.
