Picket Fence Creamery Orange Pineapple Ice Cream Recalled for Undeclared Yellow #6

Picket Fence Creamery L.L.C. is recalling Orange Pineapple ice cream sold in Iowa because it contains undeclared Yellow #6, a color additive that may affect consumers with sensitivity to artificial dyes.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall with undeclared Yellow #6 coloring. The source text contains no reports of illness or injury, and Yellow #6 is a known allergen only for sensitive consumers, not a high-risk pathogen or structural hazard. The recall is classified as voluntary and initiated by the firm, consistent with a precautionary action.
