Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream voluntarily recalls some Häagen-Dazs mini bars for undeclared wheat
Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream, Inc. announced a voluntary recall on Monday of "a limited number" of Häagen-Dazs brand Dark Chocolate Mini Bars because the product "may contain undeclared wheat."
The company recall announcement was published on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration website Tuesday.
"Those with an allergy or severe sensitivity to wheat run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products," Dreyer's said in its announcement.
According to the company, the affected products were sold in a six-count package with a "best by" date of Jan. 31, 2027.
The batch code for the affected products is LLA519501. Batch codes can be found on product packaging, Dreyer's said.
According to the recall announcement, the affected product was shipped to Kroger locations in 29 states including Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
The recalled product was also shipped to Giant Eagle locations in five states including Indiana, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Photos of the recalled products and additional details can be found on the FDA website.
"No other Häagen-Dazs products or other batches of Häagen-Dazs Chocolate Dark Chocolate Mini Bars are affected by this recall," Dreyer's said in its announcement Monday.
The company said no illnesses or injuries have been reported to date in connection with the recall, which is being carried out in cooperation with the FDA.
"We are recalling this product because it may contain products that contain wheat in packaging that does not reveal the presence of wheat on the label," Dreyer's said. "Although our investigation is ongoing, we believe products containing wheat were repacked into the incorrect packaging at the beginning of a production run."
The company has instructed consumers with a wheat allergy or sensitivity not to consume the recalled product and to instead discard it or "return it to their place of purchase for a full refund."
"The safety, quality, and integrity of our products remain our number one priority," Dreyer's stated. "We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this action represents to both our consumers and retail customers."
Consumers with questions about the recall can contact Dreyer's via email at dreyers@casupport.com, or by phone at (800) 767-0120, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.
ABC News has reached out to Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream, as well as its parent company Froneri, for additional comment.
