H-E-B ice cream is now being voluntarily recalled due to fears that some of the frozen desserts may contain wood fragments.

‘H-E-B Caramel Pecan Turtle Ice cream distributed in retail stores in Texas have been voluntarily recalled as they are feared to contain fragments of wood.’

The frozen treats should include milk, dairy cream, chocolate, caramel and pecan nuts. However, it appears that there’s a possibility that in the production line wood splinters have also reached the creamy dessert. 




As company executives have declared that no one has so far complained of injuries or other adverse reactions caused by the potentially hazardous ice cream. Even so, in an effort to place customer safety first, the recall was deemed necessary, and was promptly ordered throughout all the H-E-B grocery stores found across Texas and northeast Mexico.
Similarly, back in January 2015, a Lysteria monocytogenes outbreak emerged among people who had consumed ice cream produced by Blue Bell Creameries. After complaints of 10 ill cases and three patients eventually succumbing to complications, Blue Bell ice cream was also removed from retail stores.
