What happened

Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream Inc. has initiated a Class II recall for its Outshine Fruit Bars Grape (6-count, 2.5 ounce, UPC 041548244044) due to the potential presence of glass pieces. The recall is currently listed as ongoing and affects products packaged in paper outer cartons.

Who it affects

This recall affects Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream Inc., frozen food distributors, retail quality managers, and food safety/compliance officers responsible for monitoring physical hazard contaminants in frozen confections.

Why it matters

A Class II designation suggests that while the health hazard is not considered critical, the presence of glass poses a risk of temporary or reversible adverse health consequences. This event may necessitate a review of manufacturing line integrity and foreign material exclusion (FME) programs to identify the source of the glass shards, whether from the production environment or raw material inputs.

Practical takeaway

QA teams should ensure that foreign object detection protocols (such as X-ray or metal detection) are functioning according to specifications and that supplier controls for packaging materials are reviewed for potential contamination risks. Operations should confirm immediate quarantine of the specified UPC and lot to prevent further distribution.
