A pesky bit of coconut has led to the recall of over 1,000 cartons of Turkey Hill ice cream.
The Pennsylvania-based company is voluntarily recalling 1,200 packages of its mint chocolate chip flavor after the “undeclared allergen” was accidentally added.
A consumer notified Turkey Hill of the unintended ingredient, which the company said has not caused any reported illness or allergic reaction so far.
The recall is limited to Pennsylvania. The affected cartons were sold at Turkey Hill Mini Marts and Cold Cut Hut in Philadelphia, as well as Shady Maple Farm Market in Blue Ball and John Herr’s Village Market in Millersville.
The coconut was added to the ice cream during the last 32 minutes of a mint chocolate chip production run on Sept. 28.
