Breyers Ice Cream Is Being Recalled Nationwide—Here's What to Know
Affected cartons were sold nationwide, and they pose an almond allergen risk.
Undeclared almonds can cause severe allergic reactions; seek help if symptoms appear.The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) announced a recall on a Breyers ice cream flavor sold nationwide, according to a recent report. This is due to mislabeling causing an undeclared allergen.
The ice cream product being recalled is a 1.5-quart carton of Breyers Rocky Road Ice Cream packaged in a Breyers Chocolate Truffle Tub. While the tub bears the label of the chocolate truffle flavor, the lid is accurately labeled as the rocky road flavor. The impacted cartons have a printed best-by date of July 10, 2026, and UPC '077567457288.'
Check your ice cream immediately, and if it matches the recall information, dispose of it or return to your place of purchase for a possible refund. This recall was recently classified as a Class II recall, meaning that the product "may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences."
Those that have bought this mislabeled ice cream may unknowingly eat almonds, an undeclared allergen on the product. This can cause an allergic reaction as severe as anaphylaxis for people allergic to nuts. If you are showing signs of anaphylactic shock like nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, hives or trouble breathing after eating this ice cream, call 911 immediately.
Contact the FDA at 1-888-INFO-FDA (1-888-463-6332) for questions or to ask for additional information about this recall.

What's Behind Hologic's Positive Long-Term Outlook for Cytology Unit?
Hologic HOLX is a leading name in the cytology space, with its Cytology business, part of its Diagnostics franchise, primarily focusing on screening for cervical cancer. The company has pioneered the first FDA-approved liquid-based cytology test — the ThinPrep Pap test — and the first FDA-approved mRNA-based HPV test — the Aptima HPV Assay. Co-testing — combining a Pap test with an HPV test — is the most sensitive testing option for cervical cancer screening compared to either test used alone. While this business of Hologic has historically been a flattish to single-digit grower, the company has continued to invest in it, like the 2024 launch of the Genius digital cytology system. It was a significant introduction, marking the only FDA-cleared digital cytology system that combines deep-learning-based AI with advanced volumetric imaging technology to help identify pre-cancerous lesions and cervical cancer cells. HOLX management noted that if not for the sales headwinds in China, Cytology would have grown in low single digits in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, driven by the rollout of its Genius digital diagnostics system, instead of reporting a 2.2% decline. With more labs around the world implementing this in-house innovation, Hologic has received strong positive feedback. Genius replaces the traditional manual review of path slides, which was previously conducted on glass under a microscope, by capturing a digital image of the slide, which can be reviewed remotely from anywhere in the customer's network on the company's review station. These workflow advantages not only address their growing labor shortages but also enable cervical cancer screening in regions with limited infrastructure. Because the Genius system requires an overhaul of the traditional pet screening workflow, Hologic expects the full rollout to be a multi-year process, serving as a growth driver for the next several quarters. HOLX's Peers in Cervical Cancer Screening Quest Diagnostics DGX offers a complete menu of solutions for screening and diagnosing cervical cancer. In April this year, DGX introduced a new solution aimed at expanding access to human papillomavirus (HPV) screening to help identify women who are at risk of developing cervical cancer. With this new offering, physicians can offer patients the option to collect their specimen for HPV screening in a physician's office or other healthcare setting. Quest Diagnostics' latest test uses the FDA-cleared HPV self-collection solution from Roche, approved for use with Roche Holding AG's RHHBY cobas HPV test in May 2024. Roche's cervical cancer portfolio includes three clinically validated tests to help identify women at risk and improve the detection of high-grade disease in a single round of screening. The cobas HPV test is the first clinically validated, FDA-approved, CE-IVD marked HPV DNA test for all cervical screening indications — primary screening, ASC-US triage and co-testing. The CINtec PLUS Cytology test is the only FDA-approved triage test that uses dual biomarker technology to simultaneously detect p16 and Ki-67 in women with HPV-positive results. Roche's CINtec Histology test uses advanced p16 biomarker technology to confirm cervical lesions due to transforming HPV infections.

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A nationwide recall of more than 40,000 units of toothpaste has received the lowest risk level by the Food and Drug Administration. A recall for Sensodyne Pronamel Active Shield Toothpaste for Sensitive Teeth began on August 5 over concerns that "Fresh Mint" tubes were mislabeled "Cool Mint/Whitening." The outer carton was labeled accurately. FDA inspectors classified the recall as a Class III, the lowest of three risk levels, on Tuesday, indicating the mix-up was "not likely to cause adverse health consequences." Newsweek contacted Haleon, which makes Sensodyne, via email on Tuesday. Why It Matters The FDA assigned this recall a Class III designation, which applies to situations where the use of or exposure to the recalled product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences. While the FDA determined the risk to be minimal, the corrective move underscores the regulatory attention to food contact safety and manufacturing consistency.

Problems with product quality may occur during manufacturing, shipping, or storage. They include … labeling concerns." What Happens Next The FDA lists the recall as ongoing.
