Wells Dairy recall update: Ice cream adds 22 products to its recall list - Here's why
Wells Dairy has recalled 22 of its products in the United States due to the possible presence of plastic in them
Wells Enterprises, also known as Wells Dairy, has recalled batches of its ice cream products across the country due to the possible presence of plastics. These products were shipped to nearly 103 food service locations in the United States, but the recall was initiated on April 25 after plastic risks.
FDA classifies Wells Dairy recall as Class II
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified this recall as a Class II category, which means consumption of this recalled batch of products could cause reversible health issues. If hard plastic fragments are found to be anywhere present in these products, it could cause a choking hazard. However, the chances of serious harm are quite slim in these cases, according to the FDA's classification.
