The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is recalling various lots of popular ice cream products distributed nationwide as they may contain pieces of plastic and metal.
Large tubs of ice cream from brands including Baskin Robbins, Best Buy, President’s Choice and Scotsburn Joins Farmers are included in the recall, which was posted Apr. 20 to the agency’s website.
“Do not use, sell, serve or distribute the affected products,” the recall notice said.
The recall said the products were sold nationally at hotels, restaurants and retail institutions.
The recall includes Baskin Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip, Vanilla, Pralines N’ Cream and Chocolate Mousse Royale flavored ice creams made in 946 ml to 11.36 L lots.

Not Clear How Plastic, Metal Got in Recalled Ice Cream Tubs
The recall notice did not say how the issue was caused, or how it was discovered; however, it said it involved the company Agropur Coopérative.
Agropur Coopérative is a dairy cooperative and supplier of products for the industrial, retail and foodservice sectors.
In the past, Agropur initiated a recall for cheeses made at a Beauceville plant due to the possible presence of fine metal particles coming from a manufacturing piece of equipment.
It is not known if any consumers were impacted by the recalled products. The company is not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes end in class action lawsuits.
Late last year, Driscoll’s blueberries were pulled from the shelves in Ontario, Canada, due to the possible presence of small metallic spheres.
