Unilever Recalls Ice Cream Over Undeclared Almonds

Unilever has recalled 6,668 cases of Breyers Rocky Road Ice Cream nationwide after Rocky Road, which contains almonds, was mistakenly packaged in tubs labeled as Chocolate Truffle, resulting in undeclared tree nut allergens and posing a risk to individuals with nut allergies. The U.S. FDA classified the recall as Class II, indicating the potential for temporary or medically reversible adverse health effects. Unilever is urging consumers with almond allergies to avoid the product and has provided contact information for refunds and further assistance. In a separate incident, Turkeyfoot Creek Creamery in Ohio has voluntarily recalled eight ice cream flavors sold in pints across several Ohio stores and neighboring states due to undeclared allergens, though no illnesses have been reported. Consumers are advised to return the affected products for a refund and seek medical attention if needed. Both companies emphasize the importance of accurate allergen labeling to prevent health risks.
