There were several major recalls involving wildly popular products and big-name companies over the last 7-10 days, so check your cupboards and pantries for any recalled items you may have purchased in recent months. Some of the items pulled from shelves include ice cream contaminated with plastic, coolers potentially amputating fingertips, eyecare products pulled over sterility issues, and ready-to-eat food items linked to Listeria concerns and undeclared allergens. Here's what to throw out or return for the week of May 12, 2025: Thousands of gallons of popular ice cream products were pulled from shelves due to a possible contamination of hard plastics in the desserts. The voluntary recall was made by Wells Enterprises, maker of popular ice cream brands like Blue Bunny, Halo Top, Bomb Pop and Blue Ribbon Classics. 22 varieties of ice cream products were affected by the recall and were distributed to over 100 facilities across the U.S. including restaurants, cafeterias and food service companies. Check out a complete list of flavors and brands that were recalled here. Igloo expanded its recall of 90-quart rolling coolers "due to fingertip amputation and crushing hazards," according to a notice on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The coolers were recalled due to safety issues with the tow handle of the cooler, which can "pinch consumers' fingertips against the cooler, posing fingertip amputation and crushing hazards," the notice states. More than one million coolers were previously recalled in February, and an additional 130,000 were pulled after the recall was expanded on May 8, 2025 The recall was expanded due to "78 more reports of fingertip injuries, including 26 resulting in fingertip amputations, bone fractures or lacerations," according to USA Today. Fresh & Ready Foods voluntarily recalled 86 different ready-made products including sandwiches, snacks, and pastas across four states due to potential contamination of listeria. At least 10 people across California and Nevada have been hospitalized with symptoms related to the listeria outbreak, which has been linked to ready-to-eat food products. After a routine inspection, the FDA identified Fresh & Ready Foods as the source of a Listeria outbreak from last year. For the full list of recalled products, go to the FDA's website. More than 75,000 cases over-the-counter eye care products including artificial tears and other ophthalmic solutions distributed by AvKARE were recalled over a potential sterility issue. The voluntary recall was issued after a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) audit uncovered a manufacturing deviation that may pose a health risk to consumers, although the health risk was not specified in the report. On May 6, the FDA gave the recall the second-highest risk level. You can find specific lot codes and expiration dates on the AvKare news release, as well as a full list of the recalled items. Ford announced a massive recall of 274,00 Expedition and Lincoln-branded Navigator SUVs due to the potential loss of brake function while driving. Documents published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration state that the front brake lines in these cars 'may be in contact' with their engine air cleaner outlet pipe due to a potential installation defect. "Front brake lines in the affected vehicles may be in contact with the engine air cleaner outlet pipe," the recall states. "This can result in a brake line leak."

USMNT, USWNT unveil snazzy new kits for 2025
U.S. Soccer unveiled on Tuesday a pair of new kits to be worn by the USMNT and USWNT beginning this summer, and you know what? MORE — Rating USMNT stars in the Premier League in 2025 The dark blue shirt with red and brighter blue stripes is perhaps the best away shirt the USMNT and USWNT have worn since… the beloved Bomb Pop kit from the 2014 World? This one threads the (very difficult) needle of blending what will look good on athletes on the field of play, and also look cool in a fashion sense for fans off it. The white shirt is distinctly American and even harkens back to the once-infamous (but now famous) denim kit from the 1994 World Cup. So again, 10/10 for the simple fact that U.S. fans have been begging for a kit with some kind of iconography uniquely specific to the Stars and Stripes. Our only complaint: The men's team will continue to wear its 2024 white kit, which is a clean look and a solid 7/10 design-wise but lacks the instinctive "yup, that's America's team" detail. The USWNT will debut the new Brilliant (white) kit against China on May 31 and the USMNT will debut the Heartbeat (dark) kit against Turkiye on June 7.
