After a series of recalls, an investigation into safety issues at US ice cream makers forced one manufacturer to cease operations and resulted in three voluntary recalls, the US Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday.
The FDA said that it inspected and obtained samples from 89 ice cream production facilities in 32 states in 2016 and 2017, detecting listeria monocytogenes, which can cause listeriosis, at 19 facilities and one instance of salmonella.Foodborne illness may be on the rise. Here's whyThe investigation was launched in August 2016 after 16 recalls of ice cream products in the prior three-year period and an outbreak of listeriosis linked to an ice cream maker in 2015 that involved three deaths.
As a result of the investigation, the FDA said, it suspended the food facility registration of Florida-based Working Cow Homemade in 2018, although the suspension was lifted after the firm stopped making ice cream and switched to distributing products made by other ice cream makers. The company also made two voluntary recalls of its ice cream because of potential contamination with listeria monocytogenes, the FDA said.

But in a couple of months, people will forget about that and grab it back anyway😂
Well, salmon + vanilla =.....
Investigated so what is recommendations moving forward? That was 2 years ago. Is this a scare tactic
What’s the use of this info if the companies are not named.
Your spin isn't good to your compatriots' favor. :(
PSA: American people, please do your own research before believing anything from FakeNewsCNN
How is Ben and Jerry's doing on these tests?
But the good news is we got the ice cream. The bad news is 60000 Americans died in one year of opiates before we acted. More than in all of Vietnam. Let that sink in. But damn. They are on that ice cream. 🙄
The FDA has almost less credibility than fakenews.
About those opiates.
Oh good. And still not a lot of people sick. They must be doing a good job. I got sick one time from homemade ice cream. It’s life. Glad they are on it
Ban ice cream
Let’s report on ice cream
Enjoy
How come CNN is not reporting on the Copenhagen Riots? I wonder why?
