13 Ice Cream Brands You Should Avoid Due to Recalls

There's nothing more enjoyable in the summer than a refreshing, ice-cold, frosty treat. For many of us, that comes in the form of ice cream or various other frozen goodies. You might not always have your favorite flavors stocked in-house, which is where Mister Softee can save the day. But the popular ice cream truck isn't always around, and you might want to keep a few pints on hand.

However, if you do stock your freezer with delicious desserts, there are certain brands you might want to avoid. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), 13 ice cream brands were recalled over potential listeria contamination, a bacterial infection with deadly consequences. Although no illnesses have yet been reported, the FDA recommends you toss all listed items and request a refund from the place of purchase.

Be sure to check the complete recall list here for specific lots and plant codes to verify whether your product was included in the recall. (For more items you should avoid, check out the most unhealthy foods you're likely feeding your kids.)
