Nestle Recalls Drumstick Ice Cream Cones Over Listeria Concerns

Nestle is recalling Nestlé Drumstick Club 16 count Variety Pack and 24 count Vanilla Pack due to listeria concerns. The two pack sizes contain 4.6 fl.oz. cones and were distributed nationally. No other production codes, sizes or varieties of Nestlé Drumstick products are affected by this recall.

The recalled items tested positively for listeria, which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

The Nestlé recall is limited to the Drumstick Club 16 Count Variety Pack and 24 count Vanilla Pack, made at the company’s Bakersfield, Calif. ice cream production facility. The product identification codes can be found on the back of the packages and on the individually marked vanilla cones from the 24 count pack. The two packs being recalled carry distinct UPC codes, as well as a “best before” date and production code. See the image for codes and package images.
