To better read the code for affected products it is advised to hold the bottle against a bright light. (Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission)Albertans are being warned not to drink Woody's Sasparilla because it may contain pieces of glass.
Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission has issued a recall of Woody's Sasparilla with the lot number BB16-02-14.
The drink is sold in four packs of 330 ml bottles.
The commission is asking retailers, restaurants and bars to take the product off shelves.
Consumers can also return the product to the original location of purchase for a refund.
It's not the first time glass fragments have shown up in the company's beverages, as the Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued a recall for Woody's products back in November.
