Velvet Ice Cream company is voluntarily recalling all of its ice cream and sherbet products as a precaution due to the potential to contain Listeria monocytogenes, an organism that can cause serious, and sometimes fatal, infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

Healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Listeria infection, however, can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

No illness or injury has been associated with the recalled products, which are being recalled in cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The issue was identified as a result of the company’s routine testing.

The products were distributed to Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia through various drug stores, convenience stores and supermarkets. They are packaged in various sizes and containers. The products were distributed and sold in stores from on or after March 24, 2021, with the following product codes, which can be found at the bottom or side of the container:
