Wawa Iced Tea Less Sugar Recalled for Missing Phenylketonuria Warning
Wawa, Inc. is recalling Wawa Iced Tea Less Sugar bottles because the label fails to list the required phenylketonuria warning and does not identify Aspartame as an ingredient.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class III, which indicates a remote probability of adverse health consequences. The hazard is a labeling error affecting a specific metabolic condition (PKU) rather than a widespread safety threat.
Plain-English summary
Wawa, Inc. has initiated a recall of Wawa Iced Tea Less Sugar, 12 FL OZ. bottles, with an expiration date of April 29, 2019. The recall was initiated due to mislabeling issues. Specifically, the product label does not include the required phenylketonuria warning, and the ingredient listing does not disclose the presence of Aspartame.
The affected product was distributed to Pennsylvania and Delaware. A total of 710 cases were distributed, with each case containing 24 bottles.
