Blue Bell Ice Cream has recalled certain half-gallon containers of Moo-llennium Crunch Ice Cream after they were accidentally packaged in Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough containers that did not list nuts. "The recalled half gallons may have undeclared almonds, walnuts, and pecans," as reported by CW39. The affected containers can be identified by the lid code 061027524.
The Brenham, Texas-based ice cream manufacturer distributed the compromised containers across Texas and numerous other southern states, including Alabama and Florida, as mentioned by CBS Austin. In a coordinated effort with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Blue Bell is urging customers who have purchased the recalled product to return it to the store of purchase for a full refund. So far, there have been no reported illnesses stemming from the recalled ice cream, as Blue Bell has assured the public.
Blue Bell has recalled certain ice cream products due to a packaging error that could affect people with nut allergies. "It was a Blue Bell employee who discovered the mistake while restocking a retailer," according to CW39. The products were sold in stores across the South and Midwest, including Virginia and Kansas. Customers can contact Blue Bell at 979-836-7977 or [email protected] for more information.
