More Than 17,800 Ice Cream Cartons Recalled Due to Plastic Contamination—Here’s What to Know

If you recently bought ice cream or frozen yogurt at the grocery store, check the label before consuming it. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a recall of more than 17,800 cartons of ice cream due to the presence of plastic pieces in the product.

The recall was initiated on April 25, 2025, by Wells Enterprises, Inc., based in Le Mars, Iowa. It includes 22 flavors of ice cream and frozen yogurt packaged in 3-gallon cartons. The recalled products were available at 103 centers nationwide, including Fort Worth, Texas; Houston, Texas; Le Mars, Iowa; Rosemont, Illinois; Wyoming; and Michigan.

On May 14, 2025, the FDA classified the recall as a Class II threat, which is "a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote."
