Coca-Cola has recalled tens of thousands of cans of Diet Coke, Sprite and Fanta Orange because they may be contaminated with “foreign materials.”

Nearly 2,000 cases are affected, equivalent to about 48,000 cans sold in Alabama, Mississippi and Florida since November 6th.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reported the recall in a filing and said the recall has been completed and there are no longer the affected cans on the market.
