What???

3 people died and 7 became ill after eating blue bell due to the bacteria listeria being found in several machines. Most people’s immune systems shrugged it off but people with compromised immune systems (birth defects or diseases such as HIV) could become seriously ill or in this case die as a result of it.

Damn, that’s crazy that it happened, I’m glad I know not to buy them now.

@amerigoilluminatusx Hello! Texas native, here with more information that you should have the opportunity to know.

The second it became clear that Blue Bell was the source, they voluntarily shut down their facilities and recalled EVERYTHING they currently had on the market, around 8 million gallons of ice cream.

They tested, disassembled and thoroughly sterilized, then retested their manufacturing equipment. At least one major piece of equipment was thrown away, presumably because they couldn’t guarantee it was safe.

They tracked down the source of the “outbreak” and submitted a root cause analysis (with some info redacted here) to the FDA. And then they slowly started manufacturing again, releasing a few flavors at a time, testing each shipment before sending them out.

This happened over a year ago. They’re still recovering.

They threw away MILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep people safe instead of, you know, trying to keep everything under wraps. (Honestly the tagline here should be “We Scare Because We Care” or somethin.) Blue Bell is a fricken solid and honest company.

So, yeah, enjoy your ice cream! ALL OF BLUE BELL IS DOING EVERYTHING PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE TO KEEP IT SAFE AND DELICIOUS.

That is all.

I like how OP implied Blue Bell was out killing hordes of people through deliberate malfeasance. Sounds like a PETA smear campaign.
