Summer has already arrive here in the South where temperatures have been over 90 degrees for the past week. Ice cream, the cool summer treat, is probably flying off the shelves. But, food allergy sufferers always have to be concerned when trying new foods and ice cream is no exception.

The Kroger Company announced last week that it is recalling select containers of the Kroger Deluxe Chocolate Paradise Ice Cream. The ice cream may contain tree nuts not listed on the label.

People who are allergic to tree nuts could have a serious reaction if they eat this ice cream. For people not allergice to tree nuts, there is no safety issue with the product. Customers can return the product to stores for a full refund or replacement container of ice cream.

It seems that Kroger has acted swiftly to issue the recall and to get the information out to the public. For more information, you can read the press release on the Kroger company website.
