Recall Details
Keurig, a leading manufacturer of coffee makers and pods, announced a voluntary recall of 960 cartons of its McCafe Premium Roast Decaf Coffee K-Cup Pods. The recall follows a discovery that the pods are labeled decaf but may contain caffeine. The company posted the recall notice on the FDA website.
Why the Recall Matters
The presence of caffeine in a product marketed as decaf can affect consumers who rely on caffeine-free beverages for health or personal preference. The FDA’s Class II classification indicates that the product may cause temporary or reversible health effects, but serious consequences are considered remote. Consumers should be aware of the labeling discrepancy.
