The FDA defines a Class II recall as “a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”

A Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling spokesperson offered the following statement in response to news of the recall:

Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling is voluntarily recalling 432 cases (i.e., 864 12-packs) of Coca-Cola Classic in 12-oz cans in Illinois and Wisconsin. The cases are being withdrawn because they did not meet our high-quality standards. We are taking this voluntary action because nothing is more important to us than providing high-quality products to the people who drink our beverages.
