Coca-Cola Recalls Its Popular Zero Sugar Drink Because It Contains Full Sugar

www.simplyrecipes.com Coca-Cola Recalls Its Popular Zero Sugar Drink Because It Contains Full Sugar

If you recently bought Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade, please note that Coca-Cola voluntarily recalled 13,152 cases because it was found that they contained full sugar. Check the label before you drink it, especially if you're watching your sugar intake for medical reasons.

I know the headline sounds funny, but remember that could kill a diabetic.

Coca-Cola has voluntarily recalled 13,152 cases of Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade because it discovered during an internal investigation that cans labeled as Zero Sugar contain full sugar.
Not Coke, it's the lemonade.
- Could've recalled it for being Minute Maid too.
- Minute Maid is owned by Coke. That's why the headline says Coke is pulling the drinks.
  
  Headline could be written better, I warned my friend who's sister is a diabetic before realizing its just the lemonade
  
  Now you know better than to stop reading after two seconds. If you spent three more seconds reading the summary your panicked warning would have been avoided.
  
  If I had stopped reading after 2 seconds I wouldn't know it was the lemonade, something that should be put front and center because if I was a drinker of minute maid zero sugar lemonade and I saw "Coke recalls popular zero sugar drink", I wouldn't've bothered reading further.
  
  Anyone downvoting is just shilling for shitty news practices.
  This headline was intentionally misleading. At BEST it's meant to be vague to make you click into the article to find out what the drink is. Either way it's shitty.
  
  Reading comprehension is pretty tough, huh
  
  Apparently.
  
  Did you only read the headline and immediately tell someone not to drink cola...
  or did you read the headline and summary and still tell someone not to drink cola?
  Make up your mind.
- 13k cases is like 30 seconds of production 😂
  
  You aren’t far off. I’ve been in the Anheuser Busch plant in Cartersville GA about 20 years ago and I swear one line bottled 600 a minute…. Remember thinking how it took two of our plants to keep one of theirs going. You couldn’t see the bottles they moved so fast.
  
  Thing is though there's around 12-24 bottles per case depending on the size of the bottles.
  Our fastest filler here at work does 36,000 bottles an hour, so you definitely won't be getting 13,000 cases in 30 seconds I can assure ya ;)
- I am very tempted to complain about the state of modern journalism, but maybe we don't have to expect better from "simpyrecipes.com".
  Still, holy clickbait, Batman.
  
  "simpy" recipes are something else entirely.
  
  Better journalistic integrity, weirdly.
- Hahahahah Fuck it I'm leaving my long ass conspiracy theory centered around this breakthrough being about Coke Zero specifically and no other drinks comment I responded to someone else with.
