Danone US has issued a nationwide recall of its So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert pints after discovering small stones and other hard objects embedded within the product's cashew clusters β marking the second recall of this exact product in under a year.
What's Being Recalled
The Class II recall covers all pints of So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert with best-by dates on or before August 8, 2027. The affected product carries UPC code 744473476138 and SKU 136603. No other flavors in the So Delicious lineup are affected, but the recalled pints were distributed to major retailers nationwide, including Walmart and Target.
The Specific Risk
According to the FDA, the contamination poses a choking and dental injury risk to consumers who might bite into the hard foreign objects hidden within the cashew clusters. A Class II recall designation means the situation could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or carries only a remote probability of more serious harm.
Not the First Time β This Exact Issue Happened Before
This marks the second recall of the identical product for the identical contamination issue within roughly nine months. Danone first recalled this same flavor in December 2025, affecting more than 4.6 million units nationwide, after the company identified what it believed at the time was the root cause tied to a supplier issue. The recurrence of stones and hard objects in the cashew inclusions now raises real questions about whether that earlier corrective action actually resolved the underlying problem.
Danone's Response
In its recall notice, So Delicious Dairy Free stated: "So Delicious Dairy Free is working swiftly with retail partners to remove the potentially impacted product from shelves. In the meantime, the company has already identified and corrected this issue and will soon be able to bring back the frozen dessert so many people enjoy." Neither Danone nor the FDA has publicly explained why the same contamination issue reappeared after the company's prior corrective measures, leaving some uncertainty about whether the underlying supplier or quality-control problem has genuinely been resolved this time.
What Consumers Should Do
Anyone with the affected So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster pints in their freezer is urged to check the best-by date and not consume the product. Customers can contact the So Delicious Dairy Free Care Line at 1-833-367-8975 to inquire about refunds. As with any recall, affected products can also typically be returned to the place of purchase for a refund.
Part of a Busy Recall Season
This recall adds to a string of recent food safety alerts affecting products sold at Walmart specifically, which has issued several notable recalls in recent weeks spanning multiple product categories β a pattern that has kept food safety concerns unusually prominent for shoppers at the retail giant heading into the holiday shopping season.
What's Next
With the company indicating the product will return to shelves once quality concerns are addressed, consumers who enjoy this specific flavor should watch for updated packaging or confirmation from Danone that the contamination issue has been fully resolved before purchasing it again.
