Ice Cream Recalled for Allergen

Ice cream is being recalled because the packaging may not inform consumers of the right flavor inside, posing a possibly health risk, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Publix Super Markets is recalling its for Publix Premium Light Tiramisu Ice Cream because it could actually contain Publix Premium Coffee Almond Fudge Light Ice Cream. The Fudge ice-cream has almonds in it, which could pose an allergy risk to those with nut allergies.

The undeclared allergen could cause serious or life-threatening allergic reactions if allergic consumers eat this product.
