Ben & Jerrys ice-cream recall

If you haven’t already demolished your tub of Ben & Jerrys ice cream then you will want to bin it now.

Some tubs of 500ml Cookie Dough by Ben & Jerrys are being recalled amid fears the ice cream could contain metal fragments.

The company has issued an alert over four batches of the ice cream which it says could be affected.

Tubs affected have codes L62110L011, L62111L011, L62112L011 and L62113L011 printed on the bottom of the pots.

If you have one of the selected tubs you are being asked to throw them away and call 0800 146 252 to find out how to receive a voucher for a free pot.

Ben & Jerry’s said: “The company has identified a specific production period during which Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough 500ml may have been affected and, as safety remains a top priority, Ben & Jerry’s is voluntarily recalling four batch codes of Cookie Dough 500ml from sale. As a precaution, everyone with a 500ml tub of Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough in their freezers at home should check the batch number on the bottom of their tub to make sure it’s not affected. And, if it matches the batch numbers listed above, they should not eat the product and, instead, we ask them to discard the product in the usual household bin.”

It is not known how many tubs have been affected so please help spread the word.
