Bubbies Mochi Ice Cream is being recalled due to the potential for free-floating foreign plastic pieces in the product.

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: The recall involves a physical hazard (foreign plastic pieces) in a food product. While no injuries are reported in the source text, the potential for choking or injury from free-floating plastic pieces in ice cream fits the criteria for a high-risk product where injury has not yet been reported.
