7Up Zero Sugar Tropical Soda Recall: Important Information and History of 7Up
If you are planning to enjoy a refreshing 7Up today, it is essential to ensure that the product is not part of the recent FDA recall. Due to a labeling error at a distribution center, some zero-sugar 7Ups actually contain sugar, as reported by All Recipes. The recall affects over 1,950 cases of 7Up Zero Sugar Tropical Soda, posing a potential health risk, especially for individuals with diabetes, as the drink contains 38 grams of sugar per can. The FDA has classified this recall as Class II, indicating possible adverse health effects from consuming the product.
To identify the recalled 7Up Zero Sugar Tropical Soda, look for 12 oz. aluminum cans in a cardboard carton labeled as 7Up Tropical Flavored Soda with UPC 078000037975 for cans and UPC 078000037982 for cardboard boxes. The affected products have lot numbers XXXXBR062156 or XXXXBR062256 and a "use by" date of March 23, 2026. If you have purchased these products, you can return them to the store for a full refund. Keurig Dr Pepper is the manufacturer and owner of the 7Up brand in the United States.
7Up has an interesting history, originating from Charles Leiper Grigg in October 1929 as "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda" containing lithium citrate. The name was later shortened to 7Up due to its simplicity. If you have any of the recalled products, ensure to return them for a refund to avoid any health risks associated with the mislabeled soda.
