Ice cream was produced in the Netherlands with raw material from the UK and was distributed in the Netherlands, Ireland and UK.
Unilever said internal quality assurance checks have shown some products could contain pieces of metal.
“The company has identified a specific production period during which Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough 500ml may have been affected, and as safety remains a top priority, Ben & Jerry’s is voluntarily recalling four batches of Cookie Dough 500ml…from sale.
“As a precaution, everyone with a 500ml tub of Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough in their freezers at home should check the batch number on the bottom of their tub to make sure it’s not affected, and if it matches the batch numbers listed above, they should not eat the product and instead we ask them to discard the product…”
We have contacted Unilever to find out more information about this recall.
