Blue Bell Recalls Ice Cream with Suspect Cookie Dough

The poor folks at Blue Creameries just can't catch a break it seems. They are once again having to recall some of their ice cream.

Blue Bell is recalling all of its ice cream products that contain cookie dough from an Iowa-based supplier.

The announcement came on Monday night after Aspen Hills recalled cookie dough that it supplied to ice cream makers after they found potential listeria bacteria contamination.

The Blue Bell recall involves half-gallons and pints of Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Blue Bell Cookie Two Step sold to retailers in addition to three-gallon packages of Blue Bell Monster, Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Cookie and Blue Bell Krazy Kookie Dough sold to food-service clients.

The product was produced between Feb. 2 and Sept. 7 and distributed in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia.

Listeria can cause serious and sometimes fatal injections in young children, frail or elderly people and those with weakened immune systems.
