Dean Foods pulls two varieties of Albertsons ice cream in light of salmonella woes

Oct. 11, 2012—Dean Foods recalled two ice cream varieties that were manufactured for Albertsons supermarkets. The affected products contain peanut butter that was supplied by Sunland and that might be contaminated with salmonella.

Dean Foods hasn’t received any complaints or reactions that are related to these products, and only two flavors of Albertsons ice cream are part of the recall.

The recall includes Albertsons Peanut Butter Cup flavor that has UPC 4116345891 and a “best by” date range of 4/6/2011 to 9/25/2013, and Albertsons Peanut Butter Chocolate that has UPC 4116345903 and a best-by date range of 3/26/2011 to 8/3/2013. The container has one of two plant codes: 49-11 or 06-20. Both flavors were sold in 1.5-quart cardboard cartons in Albertsons stores between March 26, 2012, and Sept. 25, 2012, in California, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.
