The product, in the report: 10oz (glass) bottle of Schweppes tonic water
I purchased a 6 pack of 10 oz Schweppes Tonic Water bottles from Walmart in Arcadia, Florida yesterday afternoon. This afternoon I placed three of the bottles from the package on our kitchen counter in preparation for putting them in a cooler. About an hour after putting the bottles on the counter one of them exploded, projecting glass shards and tonic throughout our kitchen. Fortunately neither my wife nor I were near the bottle or facing it when it exploded or we surely would have been cut by flying glass. My wife, a disabled U.S. Army officer who suffers from chemical toxicity (Persian Gulf) and PTSD, reacted as if she had heard an IED. Three years ago we had a similar experience, i.e., an exploding 10 oz bottle of Schweppes tonic, but we chalked that up to an anomaly. That this should happen a second time signals that there is a public safety concern here - We strongly recommend that all 10oz glass Schweppes beverage bottles be subjected to systematic testing to prevent serious injury to consumers. I am a retired U.S. Ambassador, my wife is a retired US Army LTC who holds a Bronze Star for her role as a leader in combat. We do not make such complaints lightly. [REDACTED]
