The drinks were pulled from Florida, Alabama and Mississippi stores. The FDA has not identified what the material is inside the cans.

While the cans were pulled from shelves in November, the FDA is warning customers in affected states to check their homes and discard the products.

The recalled products were sold as 12-ounce aluminum cans packaged in a 12-pack fridge pack. A fridge pack is a skinny cardboard box with a cut-out to dispense the cans.

The affected cans best by, lot and UPC numbers are:

• Diet Coke cans that have a best-by date of 01/29/24 with lot No. JAN2924MBD3, and UPC 49000028911;
• Fanta’s cans that are best by 07/29/24 with lot No. JUL2924MBD3 and UPC 49000030730;
• Sprite cans that are best by 07/29/24 with lot No. JUL2924MBD3 and UPC 49000028928.
