Totally Cool, Inc. of Maryland has recalled numerous ice cream brands that could contain Listeria monocytogenes.
In a news release posted on the FDA website, the company said no illnesses have been reported to date. But Listeria can cause grave infections and even death in children, elderly or frail people, and those with a weakened immune system.
Healthy people may only experience symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Listeria infections can cause miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women, Totally Cool, Inc. cautioned.
The products were distributed nationwide in retail locations and through direct delivery, the release said. After an FDA sampling found Listeria cells, Totally Cool said it had already stopped production and distribution of the affected products.
According to the FDA, the affected products include:
- Hershey’s 38 fluid-ounce vanilla and chocolate flavored ice cream cakes; 110 fluid-ounce vanilla and chocolate-flavored ice cream cakes; 4 fluid-ounce Cookies & Cream Ice Cream Cones; and 4 fluid-ounce Cookies & Cream Polar Bear Ice Cream Sandwiches.
