Just days after Blue Bell Creameries issued a massive recall, another ice cream melts away in the name of Listeria.
On Thursday, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream announced that it will voluntarily recall all of its ice creams, frozen yogurts, sorbets and ice cream sandwiches due to their possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The company is not only clearing out their stock shelves, but also closing the doors to their shops until new rounds of testing prove that the sweets are indeed safe for consumers to eat.
During a random sampling conducted by the Nebraska Department of Agriculture test, one pint of dark chocolate ice cream for sale in Omaha was found to contain Listera, Jeni’s representative Jamie Siskin told The Huffington Post. According to the recall statement on the Jenie’s website, the Ohio-based company recalled all products following the discovery, despite no news of reported illness to date.
