What happened

PepsiCo is recalling certain Diet Pepsi 12 oz. cans sold in Southern California because there's conflicting labeling—the outer case says the product contains aspartame, but the individual cans say it's aspartame-free. This creates confusion about what's actually in the product.

Who is at risk

People who avoid aspartame for health or personal reasons are most affected by this labeling error, since they may have purchased the product believing it was aspartame-free.

What to do

If you purchased Diet Pepsi 12 oz. cans in Southern California with one of the listed UPC codes, check the outer case labeling versus the individual can labeling. Contact PepsiCo if you have questions about whether your product is affected, or simply return it to the store where you bought it.
