Friendly’s Ice Cream is voluntarily recalling a limited quantity (324 cartons) of 48 fl. oz.

Cookies & Cream ice cream because of undeclared soy and wheat. The recalled

product was mistakenly packaged in Friendly’s Vanilla Bean ice cream cartons with a

Cookies & Cream lid. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to soy and/or

wheat run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these

products.


The recalled product was distributed through a single distribution center, UNFI, to retail

stores in Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.


The recalled product is packaged in a 48 fl. oz. Friendly’s Vanilla Bean ice cream carton

with a Friendly’s Cookies & Cream lid and a best by date of 11/26/25. The best by date

can be found on the product lid. No other Friendly’s products are affected.


The voluntary recall was initiated after it was discovered that a limited quantity of

Cookies & Cream ice cream was mistakenly packaged in a Friendly’s Vanilla Bean ice

cream cartons that did not identify the soy and wheat ingredients. No illnesses or

adverse reactions have been reported.


This recall is being made with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
