Nearly 30 Popular Drinks Recalled by the FDA Due to Harmful Chemicals

The FDA has recalled several beverages so far this year, and it has us wondering- is anything safe to drink?

The agency has recalled 28 drinks, ranging from soda to juice, and baby formula to tea. All but four of those were recalled because they had drugs, bacteria, or harmful chemicals in them that the company didn’t disclose.

This is a Serious Problem

Of the recalled drinks, one includes a pain-relieving tea called Himalayan pain relief tea, which didn’t disclose an anti-inflammatory medication ingredient on its label.

Martinelli’s Apple Juice was also on the recalled list because it contained high levels of arsenic. Around 1.9 million bottles of Fiji Water, made by Natural Waters of Viti Limited, were recalled after three types of bacteria were found in the water in addition to high levels of manganese.

Last week, four drinks produced by Charles Boggini Company called Pink Lemonade, Yellow Lemonade, Yellow Lemonade X, and Cola Flavoring Base were recalled over food dyes linked to cancer risk . Those dyes, which were not disclosed as an ingredient, include Red40 and Yellow 5.

The dyes have benzidine, which is carcinogenic to humans and animals.

The Cola Flavoring contained undeclared sulfites, preservatives that can cause allergic skin reactions, digestive issues, and asthma in people with sulfite sensitivity.
