Health Canada is warning people not to buy or consume a brand of energy drink after a utility knife blade was found in one of the vials.

Officials are recalling the Hardcore Energize Bullet liquid energy drink manufactured in the States, but sold in stores across Canada. The drink is packaged in 85.7 mL (2.9fl.oz) shots and comes in two flavours, Blue Rage and Black Rush.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration reports a similar blade was also found in the New Whey energy drink, but the brand is not sold in Canada.
