Some packages of its Deluxe Chocolate Paradise Ice Cream contain tree nuts even though the label doesn't say so. The company says the nuts could pose a severe health risk to those with symptoms linked with nut allergies.
"For consumers who are not allergic to tree nuts, there is no safety issue with the product," Kroger said in a release.
