More than 80,600 Keurig coffee pods have been recalled in three states, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). McCafé Decaf K-Cups, the at-home McDonald’s coffee pods produced by Keurig Dr Pepper, were initially pulled from shelves in early December due to mislabelling—the product may actually contain caffeine. On Jan. 23, the FDA gave the recall the second-highest risk level, Class II, meaning the risk of serious adverse effects is low, but there is a chance of temporary or reversible effects.
The affected coffee pods can be identified with the following information:
- Product description: McCafé Premium Roast Decaf Coffee K-Cup Pods
- Size: 29 oz (823 g), packaged as an 84-count carton
- Product quantity: 960 cartons (84 pods per carton)
- UPC: 043000073438
- Best-by date: Nov. 17, 2026
- Batch number: 5101564894
- Material number: 5000358463
- Amazon Standard Identification Number (ASIN): B07GCNDL91
Walmart
The recalled products were distributed in California, Indiana, and Nevada. Keurig Dr Pepper also told Health that the coffee pods were sold exclusively through Amazon, and all consumers who purchased the product were notified directly in mid-December.
The FDA did not provide specific instructions for this situation. As a Class II recall, the safest option is not to use the coffee pods and to toss or return them. However, if you can consume caffeine, the products are otherwise safe to use.
