A popular dairy-free ice cream is being recalled across the United States after consumers reported finding possible foreign materials, including small stones and other hard objects, inside the product. Danone USA announced the voluntary recall on September 15 for So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert, sold in pint containers. The affected product carries UPC 744473476138 and has best-by dates on or before April 3, 2028. The recall applies only to this specific flavor and product code, not other So Delicious Dairy Free varieties. The dessert was distributed nationwide, meaning shoppers who purchased it from major retailers should check their freezers rather than assume an older or newer date makes it safe. Consumers are advised not to eat a pint if its identifying details match the recall.

The recall is drawing additional attention because the same Salted Caramel Cluster dessert was reportedly recalled less than a year ago over a similar concern involving possible small stones or other hard objects. Danone said the latest issue was identified through consumer complaints and that the company has worked with retail partners to remove affected products from store shelves. The company also said the issue has been identified and corrected as it prepares to return the product to the market. For anyone with this dessert at home, the most important details are the flavor, UPC and best-by date printed on the container. If all three match the recalled product, it should not be consumed. Consumers can contact So Delicious Dairy Free through its customer service channels for information about refunds or replacement options while the recall remains in effect.
