Oakland, Calif., March 28, 2006 --- Two flavors of Nestlé Country Creamery Ice Cream purchased from Wal-Mart stores in Texas are being recalled because the ice cream may contain egg not identified on the label. The Nestlé Country Creamery flavors being recalled are Toll House® Chocolate Chip and French Vanilla.
The potentially affected cartons of Nestlé Country Creamery Toll House® Chocolate Chip 1.75-quart and Nestlé Country Creamery French Vanilla 1.75-quart have a "Best If Purchased By 11/10/06" date. The date can be found on the bottom of the carton. Only 43 mislabeled cartons are believed to be in the marketplace. The affected cartons, which pose no risk to those without egg allergies, were sold only in Wal-Mart stores in Texas.
No other Nestlé Country Creamery ice cream products are affected.
