An article published in a London newspaper has revealed a link between Coke's new water product in England and cancer. The product has already been subject to controversy as it was revealed that Coke planned to sell "tap water" at premium prices.

Coca-Cola has recalled every bottle of its controversial "pure"
mineral water Dasani in a cancer scare.

It came after the 95p bottles of water were found to be contaminated
with illegal levels of bromate, a potentially cancer causing
chemical.

Coca-Cola said all 500,000 bottles of the carbonated water, which is
drawn from public water supplies in Sidcup, will be cleared from
stores within 24 hours.
