Straus Family Creamery announced a voluntary recall for some of their ice cream flavors because of the potential for metal fragments in the desserts.
The recall, announced by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on May 15, said that Straus Family Creamery is “working with retailers to remove the potentially affected products from shelves.”
Those products are in 17 states — Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin.
