Danone Recalls Vegan Ice Cream Over Stones
Danone Recalls Vegan Ice Cream Over Stones
The News
Danone USA is voluntarily recalling pints of So Delicious Dairy Free® Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert because they may contain small stones and other hard foreign material.
The Food and Drug Administration posted the recall alert on Tuesday.
The recall covers pints with best-by dates on or before April 3, 2028.
The dessert was sold nationwide, including at Walmart and Target.
What Is Recalled
Product: So Delicious Dairy Free® Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert, sold in pints.
Affected codes: best-by dates on or before April 3, 2028.
Reason: possible contamination with foreign material, described by the FDA and in news reports as small stones and other hard objects.
Timeline
The FDA publishes an alert announcing Danone USA's voluntary recall of the So Delicious salted caramel pints over possible foreign material.
National and local outlets pick up the alert, reporting the dessert was sold by major retailers including Walmart and Target.
Reactions
Danone USA is treating the action as a voluntary recall, according to the FDA alert cited in news reports — the company pulled the pints rather than waiting for a mandated withdrawal.
The FDA framed the risk as contamination with hard foreign matter, the category of defect that can crack teeth or cause choking.
Consumer and local news outlets across the country, from Ohio to Florida to Pennsylvania, ran recall alerts pointing shoppers to the best-by date cutoff.
What's Next
Shoppers who have the pints at home should check the best-by date; anything dated on or before April 3, 2028 falls inside the recall.
Retailers including Walmart and Target are expected to clear affected stock from freezers.
The FDA typically updates recall notices with lot details, distribution lists and any reported injuries as a company's investigation continues.
More
So Delicious Dairy Free is one of the best-known plant-based frozen dessert brands in American grocery stores, and Danone USA is its parent company — which is why a single flavor's recall drew national coverage from at least nine outlets in a day.
