The Coca-Cola company produces soft drinks including Fanta, Sprite and Fuze Tea Coca-Cola has recalled a ‘considerable quantity’ of Coke, Sprite, Fanta and other drinks due to safety concerns. Excessive levels of the chemical chlorate were found in several of the soft drink giant’s brands due for sale in the UK, Netherlands, France, Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg. Affected products include Fuze Tea, Minute Maid, Nalu, Royal Bliss and Tropico, with production codes between 328 GE and 338 GE.
’ Affected batches of five Coca-Cola products had been shipped to the UK late last year, before routine testing found higher levels of chlorate at a production facility in Belgium. Chlorate can be found at low levels in food and drink due to the use of chlorine in sanitation Prolonged exposure to high levels of chlorate can be toxic ‘We do not have a precise figure, but it is clear that it is a considerable quantity’, a Coca-Cola spokesperson said.
