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.

What this means for you

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.
