Hey everyone, we have some important news to share about a certain frozen treat:
H-E-B has issued a recall on their 12-count packages of 3-ounce cups of Creamy Creations ice cream in a few flavors. They’re worried there might be tiny pieces of metal in the ice cream. The ice creams were sent out to all H-E-B stores in Texas and Mexico. They were also sent to Central Market, Joe V’s Smart Shop, and Mi Tienda stores.
Here are the details on the ice cream that’s been recalled:
Recalled Ice Cream Packs:

If you bought any of these ice cream packs, please don’t eat them. You can return them to the store where you bought them and get all your money back.
Be safe, and make sure to check your ice cream!
The Founding of a Texas Staple
One of the biggest names when it comes to Texas ice cream has to be H-E-B. It all began way back more than a hundred years ago in the early 1900s when a woman named Florence Butt opened a small grocery store in Kerrville, Texas. Eventually, her son, Howard Edward Butt, took over and expanded the business to focus on quality and community service. Today, H-E-B has grown into one of the most recognizable names in Texas and Mexico. Everybody today knows their commitment to fresh, local products, and their ice cream, Creamy Creations, stands out in particular.
Navigating Through the Ice Cream Aisle Safely
The recall H-E-B announced is a big deal because it affects a product that’s quite popular. When you go out to for ice cream, you have to check the label on the packaging. If you find yourself having one of the affected Creamy Creations packs, just don’t consume it. Instead, take it back to where you bought it for a refund.
H-E-B has stores all across Texas and Mexico. They’re known for being very meticulous about their products, which is why they acted quickly to resolve the issue with their ice cream. Other stores tied to H-E-B, like Central Market and Joe V’s Smart Shop, are also taking steps to make sure the ice cream is removed from shelves.
No one has reported getting hurt from the ice cream, which is great news. Food recalls happen to keep everyone safe, so it’s a good idea to pay attention to them. Remember, when it comes to food, it’s better to be safe than sorry. So, keep an eye on those labels, and enjoy your treats with peace of mind!
From The Club
We all just want to stay safe when it comes to eating anything. It’s quite scary that there might be bits and pieces of metal in the food we consume. Especially on something like ice cream which lots of people enjoy and their primary demographic are children. It’s a good thing that H-E-B, all the other stores, and the proper authorities are on the case to make sure no one gets hurt. If you do find yourself with a pack of the potentially affected ice cream, just don’t eat it and try to get a refund. Stay safe everyone!
