This week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a voluntary recall of popular organic ice cream from manufacturer Straus Family Creamery due to the presence of metal fragments in the packaging.

According to the FDA statement, the food withdrawn from the market was distributed in at least 17 states in the country, including California, Florida, Texas, Washington, among others.

In addition, the health agency detailed in its report which ice creams are being recalled with their corresponding manufacturing code and expiration date:

In response to the incident, the manufacturer stated: “Food safety and product quality remain absolute priorities for Straus.” So it is collaborating with the retailers where the product was distributed for its removal, but informed its customers that it will not issue refunds, although it will offer coupons for the purchase of another product.
