Blue Bell Recalls All Its Products In All Markets

Blue Bell Creameries L.P. said late Monday it was voluntarily recalling all of its products on sale anywhere for fear of listeria infection. Privately held Blue Bell, sometimes described as Texas's equivalent of Ben & Jerry's, had closed one of its three plants last month after it tested positive for listeria bacteria, according to an NBC News affiliate in Dallas. "We're committed to doing the 100% right thing, and the best way to do that is to take all of our products off the market until we can be confident that they are all safe," Blue Bell Chief Executive Paul Kruse said in a statement.
