Ice Cream Mislabeled: Black Walnut Packed in Cookie Dough Container

Signature Select Black Walnut Ice Cream was incorrectly packaged in containers labeled as Cookie Dough, which do not declare nuts as an allergen. The product lid correctly identifies the actual flavor.

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: FDA Class II recall involving allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (tree nuts/walnuts). No illnesses or injuries have been reported. The hazard is the discrepancy between the container label (which does not declare nuts) and the actual product contents (Black Walnut Ice Cream), creating risk for consumers with tree nut allergies.
