H-E-B is voluntarily issuing an all-store recall for certain flavors and container sizes of EconoMax and Hill Country Fare ice creams and Creamy Creations sherbets for broken metal in processing equipment found during routine maintenance.

The affected products were distributed to stores in Texas and Mexico. To date, there have been no injuries reported due to this incident.

All products related to this recall have been removed from store shelves. H-E-B is working to have the products back on shelves as soon as possible.

The FDA has a full list of recalled products and related Best By dates and UPCs on its website.

Customers who purchased the product can return it to the store for a full refund. Customers with any questions or concerns may contact H-E-B Customer Service at (855) 432-4438 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Central Standard Time.
