Overview

  • Wells Enterprises initiated the recall on April 25 after detecting potential plastic fragments in its ice cream and frozen yogurt products.
  • The U.S. FDA classified the recall as Class II on May 14, indicating a low risk of serious health consequences but possible temporary or reversible effects.
  • The recall involves 18,000 three-gallon tubs across 22 flavors, distributed to 103 centers nationwide, with expiration dates from March to October 2026.
  • Major brands affected include Blue Bunny, Halo Top, and products sold under names like Glenview Farms and Johnny Rockets, primarily in food service settings.
  • Consumers and distributors are advised to check product labels against the recall list and discard any affected tubs, as Wells works to remove products from the supply chain.
