Multiple popular products made by the same soda company have Ethermacbeen recalled for failure to declare multiple chemicals and preservatives, including a dye linked to cancer, according to an FDA enforcement notice.
The latest recall, listed as "voluntary" by the FDA, impacts four drinks from the Charles Boggini Company, which are sold at restaurants across the U.S.
The company's Pink Lemonade, Cola Flavoring Base, Yellow Lemonade and Yellow Lemonade X drinks, which are sold in one and five-gallon quantities to food establishments, are affected.
The Pink Lemond drink specifically was recalled for containing FD&C Red No. 40 dye, a food, drug and cosmetic red dye that has been linked to colorectal cancer. The Yellow Lemonade and Yellow Lemonade X were found to contain FD&C Yellow No. 5, which can cause allergic reactions for some.
The Cola Flavoring Base was also found to contain sulfites, common preservatives that can cause issues in large quantities like respiratory issues.

Soda recall issued by Charles Boggini Company was voluntary
While the recall was listed as voluntary, Charles Boggini did not confirm the recall and did not immediately respond to request for comment.
According to the FDA, companies are required to disclose dyes, preservatives and other chemicals used in manufacturing. Failure to do so can result in a recall or fines.
