Pierre's Ice Cream Company Issues Allergy Alert on its Homestyle Brand of Dutch Chocolate Ice Cream for Undeclared Peanut Butter Cup Candies (Feb. 20)
Thu, 21 Feb 2008 11:58:00 -0600

This ice cream was distributed in Ohio, Michigan, Western Pennsylvania, and Indiana and reached consumers through retail stores. The packaging does not reveal the presence of peanut butter candy or peanuts on the ingredient label. If consumers have a Dutch Chocolate 56 fl oz (purple package) with the code 07320 on the rim of the lid, they should discard the ice cream and send the lid of the empty container back to Pierre’s for a full refund.
