A voluntary recall has been issued for more than 80,000 Keurig coffee pods, according to the Food and Drug Administration.
The McCafé Premium Roast Decaf Coffee Pods were recalled in December due to a labeling error: though the pods were listed as decaf, they may have actually contained regular caffeinated coffee.
On Jan. 23, the FDA labeled the recall as Class II — the second highest alert of three levels — 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.”
The recall involved 960 cartons, each containing 84 pods. The pods had been sold on Amazon and distributed in California, Indiana and Nevada.
“At Keurig Dr Pepper, we are committed to the highest standards of safety and quality in the products we produce and distribute,” Keurig Dr Pepper wrote in a statement to NBC News. “All consumers who purchased this product were notified directly by the retailer a little more than a month ago and provided with next steps regarding replacement product.”
All impacted products that remained with the retailer were returned, according to Keurig Dr Pepper.
The cartons can be identified with a best-by date of 17 NOV 2026 and batch number 5101564894.
