Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough ice cream in 500ml containers are being recalled in the United Kingdom and Ireland for safety reasons, as the producer is concerned that some packs in distribution may contain small pieces of metal. Four batches in question are identified by the following production codes: L62110L011, L62111L011, L62112L011 and L62113L011.
The company has issued the following advisory statement: “As a precaution, everyone with a 500ml tub of Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough in their freezers at home should check the batch number on the bottom of their tub to make sure it’s not affected and, if it matches the batch numbers listed above, they should not eat the product and, instead, we ask them to discard the product in the usual household bin.”
Persons who believe they might have an affected tub should call Ben & Jerry’s customer care line on: 0800146252 (UK and Northern Ireland) or 1800 946272 (Ireland) to find out how to receive a voucher for a replacement tub.
