Picket Fence Creamery Cow Path Ice Cream Recall Due to Undeclared Peanuts
Picket Fence Creamery is recalling Cow Path ice cream because it contains undeclared peanuts, even though the label only declares nuts in general. Consumers with peanut allergies may be at risk.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: This recall involves allergen mislabeling (undeclared peanuts on a product labeled only with generic "nuts"), which is a common allergen of high concern. The FDA classification is Class II, and no illnesses have been reported. Allergen mislabeling for peanuts meets the "High" severity criterion.
