Individuals with nut allergies should check the carton before indulging in a bowl of ice cream. Breyers has recalled more than 6,668 cases of the popular summer treat due to a label misprint and undeclared allergens, posing a life-threatening health risk for those with serious nut sensitivities. 

According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Unilever Manufacturing initiated the voluntary recall, listed as a Level II, after discovering the packaging error. The Enforcement Report notes that Breyers Rocky Road ice cream was mistakenly packaged in Chocolate Truffle ice cream variety containers. 

While the 1.5-quart tubs warn that the product “may contain tree nuts,” due to the incorrect lid, consumers may miss the almond declaration because of the other product packaging. Breyers warns consumers that almonds are not listed on the product label and consumption could result in a life-threatening reaction.

For consumers without allergies, the product does not pose a health risk and no action is needed, however, those with allergies should discard the product immediately and contact Breyers with any concerns at 1-800-931-2826 or via chat or email here.
