Coca-Cola has recalled drinks in Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands due to high chlorate levels found during routine testing. Affected products include Coke, Fanta, Sprite, Tropico, and Minute Maid. The recall extends to a small batch of imported cans in Britain, already sold, with production codes 328 GE to 338 GE. Chlorate, often linked to disinfectants, poses low risk but can cause thyroid issues, nausea, and reduced oxygen absorption. Coca-Cola assured collaboration with authorities, emphasizing safety as a top priority. The UK's Food Standards Agency is investigating while unsold products are being withdrawn from shelves across Europe.
