Popular Coca-Cola product recalled from Costco due to potential contamination
Coca-Cola is recalling a popular sparkling mineral water sold at some stores due to potential bacterial contamination.
The beverage company has issued a voluntary recall on Topo Chico Mineral Waters sold in 18-packs of 16.9-ounce glass bottles in select Costco stores in Texas and Louisiana.
The packs of water were sold from May 20 to May 29, 2025, according to a notice from Costco.
The impacted product can be identified by the lot code 13A2541, which is printed on both the bottles’ cardboard cases and their necks.
The water is being recalled due to the potential contamination with Pseudomonas, a group of bacteria commonly found in the environment, particularly in soil and water, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The most common type of this infection among humans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, can cause infections in the blood, lungs, urinary track or other parts of the body.
Customers who purchased the water with the affected lot code should return the item to Costco for a refund.
