FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Englewood Cliffs, NJ – In a terrifying discovery, Unilever U.S. has launched an emergency recall of approximately 137,000 cases of Popsicle Jolly Rancher Frozen Confection Pop single-serve products after an alarming revelation: the products contain undeclared milk. This deadly allergen, not listed anywhere on the label, has already led to two reported allergic reactions, leaving families across the country on edge.
This urgent recall targets single-serve Popsicle Jolly Rancher Green Apple, Blue Raspberry, and Grape Frozen Confection Pops, which are sold through ice cream trucks, concession stands, and grab-and-go freezers nationwide. These potentially hazardous products are still out in the public, posing a serious risk to individuals who suffer from dairy allergies or sensitivities.
Warning: The slightest ingestion could trigger a severe or life-threatening allergic reaction.
Shoppers are urged to take immediate action—these affected products are hiding in plain sight. Though they resemble the familiar Popsicle treats, they carry a hidden danger. This recall does not affect the safer 18-count multi-packs sold in grocery stores. But the single-serve Pops could be lurking in any public freezer, ready to cause an allergic disaster.
Recalled Products:
Product: Popsicle Jolly Rancher Green Apple, Blue Raspberry, Grape Frozen Confection Pop
Distributed between February 1, 2024, and August 15, 2024, these products are widely spread across the country, raising fears of more allergic incidents as unaware consumers may still be purchasing them. If you or someone you love is allergic to milk, consuming this product could result in rapid and severe symptoms, potentially sending them into anaphylactic shock.
If you’ve bought these frozen treats, don’t take the risk. Check the lot codes immediately. Do not consume them under any circumstances. For your safety, visit www.PopsicleRecall.com or call (888) 926-3554 for further instructions on refunds. Representatives are available to help you from 8:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern time, Monday through Friday. Proof of purchase will be required for reimbursement, so act quickly.
No other Unilever or Popsicle products have been implicated in this terrifying recall—but that doesn’t mean they’re safe from scrutiny. Stay vigilant, and if any strange symptoms arise after consuming Popsicle products, seek medical help immediately.
