Huge Recall On Ice Cream Bars Due To Listeria Fears

Several grocery store chains are recalling ice cream bars that may be contaminated with Listeria.

The bars were manufactured by Fieldbrook Foods Corporation between January 1 and December 31 of last year. The bars have sell by dates of January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018.

They were sold at various stores under various brand names. For example, ice cream bars sold at Kroger were under the Kroger Arctic Blasters brand name.
