Overview

  • The recall covers 6,668 cases of 1.5-quart Rocky Road tubs mislabeled as Chocolate Truffle due to a packaging mix-up at Unilever’s Sikeston, Missouri, facility.
  • The FDA designated the recall as Class II, indicating that exposure to undeclared almonds could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health effects.
  • Unilever notified retailers and distributors of the issue by letter on June 2, and the FDA’s enforcement report still lists the case status as open.
  • No injuries or illnesses have been reported to date, but consumers with tree nut allergies are urged to check freezers for lot number JUL1026GB3 and UPC 077567457288.
  • Consumers should return or discard any affected tubs and can contact Unilever’s customer service or visit the FDA website for refunds and safety updates.
