Wells Enterprises is recalling Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (3-gallon tubs) distributed by US Foods because plastic material may be present in the product.
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 2/5 (Moderate).
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: The source indicates FDA Class II classification. Although the hazard—plastic contamination—could potentially cause harm, the source explicitly states no illnesses or injuries have been reported. Class II recalls without reported injury or death typically fall in the Moderate range.
