What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class I, which mandates a severity score of at least 4 according to the rubric, as Class I recalls involve a reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences or death.

Plain-English summary

Elevated Ice Cream Company is recalling Black Current Italian Ice due to the potential for contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The product may be packaged in 2.5-gallon or 1.5-gallon plastic tubs or cardboard quart containers, though the firm is unable to determine exactly how the affected batches were packaged. The recall involves 14 batches of the product.

The recall is necessary because the ice cream contains a mix produced by Snoqualmie Gourmet Ice Cream, which was previously recalled for similar contamination concerns. All affected product was distributed in the local Port Townsend, Washington area. Some containers may have a production date handwritten on a white label, while some quart containers are stamped on the bottom with a Julian date.

Consumers who have purchased this product should stop using it and return it to the place of purchase for a refund or contact the recalling firm for further instructions.
