Wisconsin-Made Ice Cream Recalled For Not Listing Pecans On Label

Because of a packaging error, Kay's Classic Vanilla Bean Ice Cream contains an undeclared allergen, says Madison, WS-based Schoep's Ice Cream Company. It has not yet resulted in any illnesses.

Consumers, who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to pecans, run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the mislabeled ice cream.  The following product is included in the recall:

• Kays Classic Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 48 oz. Round – UPC #0-87848-13021 with a Best if Used By Date of 02/28/14

The product was shipped to Food City and Super Dollar stores located in Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee.

This recall was initiated upon discovery that certain containers of Kays Vanilla Bean Ice Cream contained Kays Butter Pecan Ice Cream.  Consumers who have purchased the affected product are urged to return it to the place of purchase for a full refund. Anyone experiencing an adverse reaction to the ice cream should seek out medical help immediately.
