Danone USA Recalls So Delicious Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert Pints: Product Details, Safety Steps, and Refund Information

Check your freezer before eating any So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert. Danone USA announced a voluntary recall on September 15, 2026, and the recall remains active as of September 18. The affected pints may contain small stones or other hard objects in the cashew inclusions.

Frozen-food recalls can continue to affect households long after the announcement. A pint may stay frozen for weeks or months, and the package date or UPC may be needed to confirm whether it belongs to the recall. The FDA recall notice and Danone's consumer information should guide all decisions.

What the Danone USA So Delicious recall covers

The recall applies to one So Delicious flavor sold in pint containers across the United States. Danone USA says no other So Delicious Dairy Free codes, flavors, or products are affected.

Identify the recalled So Delicious frozen dessert

The full recalled product name is So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert. It is a pint-sized frozen dessert made by Danone USA under the So Delicious Dairy Free brand.

The recalled product has SKU 136603 and UPC 744473476138. It includes pints with best-by dates on or before April 3, 2028. The best-by date appears on the bottom of the pint, according to the So Delicious recall FAQ.

Understand the reported safety concern

Danone USA recalled the product because it may contain foreign material, including small stones and other hard objects, within the cashew inclusions. This is a physical contamination concern, not an undeclared allergen warning.

The FDA notice says the issue was identified through consumer complaints. The notice does not list a confirmed illness or injury report. Consumers should still avoid the product because hard material can damage the mouth, teeth, throat, or digestive tract.

Know what a voluntary recall means

A voluntary recall is started by a company to remove a product that may be unsafe. Danone USA is conducting this recall in cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, which posted the company announcement.

A recall does not prove that every pint contains foreign material. It means the product matches the affected description or identifying information and should not be eaten while the recall is active.

How to identify the Danone USA So Delicious recall

Brand and flavor alone may not be enough for many food recalls. Compare the package, UPC, and best-by date before deciding whether a pint is included.

Match the brand, flavor, and package size

Look for the So Delicious Dairy Free brand and the exact Salted Caramel Cluster flavor. The recalled item comes in a pint container and is labeled Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert.

Other So Delicious frozen desserts are not automatically part of this recall. Danone says other flavors, products, and codes are not affected.

Check the UPC and best-by date

Check the bottom of the pint for UPC 744473476138 and a best-by date on or before April 3, 2028. Do not rely on the package color, memory, or flavor name alone.

The official notice lists the UPC, SKU, and date range. It does not provide a separate lot-code list. Keep the container if you need to ask Danone or a retailer about a refund.

Confirm where the product was sold

The recalled pints were distributed to retail stores within the United States. The notice does not identify a limited group of states, retailers, or sales dates.

That means shoppers nationwide should check their freezers. Danone says it is working with retail partners to remove affected products from store shelves.

What to do with a recalled So Delicious pint

Treat a matching pint as unsafe to eat, even if it looks normal. Frozen food can hide hard material until it is served.

Stop eating the product and isolate it

Do not taste or serve a pint that matches the recalled product name, UPC, and date. Seal it in a bag or keep it separate from other food to prevent someone from eating it by mistake.

Keep the label and container until you finish any refund request or medical report. The packaging can help confirm the product details.

Follow Danone's disposal and refund instructions

Danone's consumer FAQ says to dispose of the recalled product. Do not donate it, repurpose it, or give it to a pet.

For a replacement coupon or refund, contact the So Delicious Consumer Care Line at 1-833-367-8975. Specialists are available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern Time. The company also provides a contact form through its website.

Clean any contacted surfaces

If the dessert melted or touched a freezer shelf, container, utensil, or counter, wash the area with warm, soapy water. Wash your hands after handling the pint and clean any utensil used with it.

Routine cleaning helps prevent food residue from spreading. It does not replace medical care after swallowing or being injured by a hard object.

How to respond after eating the recalled dessert

Eating a recalled pint does not mean an injury will occur. Still, anyone who may have swallowed a hard object should pay attention to new symptoms.

Watch for signs of injury

Possible warning signs include mouth pain, a damaged tooth, throat pain, trouble swallowing, chest pain, stomach pain, vomiting, or blood. These symptoms can have many causes, so do not attempt to diagnose yourself.

Contact a health professional if symptoms develop after eating the product. Tell the clinician that the food was part of the Danone USA foreign-material recall.

Get urgent help for severe symptoms

Call 911 or your local emergency number for choking, trouble breathing, severe bleeding, fainting, or rapidly worsening pain. Do not wait for a refund response before seeking emergency care.

If the person is a child, older adult, or has trouble swallowing, seek medical advice promptly after possible exposure. Keep the package available for medical staff.

Report illness or injury

Retain the pint, label, UPC, best-by date, receipt, and any medical records. Report suspected food-related illness or injury to the FDA through its consumer complaint channels, and tell Danone's Consumer Care team.

A clear report should include when the product was eaten, how much was consumed, symptoms, and where it was purchased. Do not throw away the package before documenting these details.

How the recall affects stores and future purchases

Retailers and distributors should check inventory for the affected product and stop selling matching pints. Danone says it is working with retail partners to remove affected products from shelves.

Retailers should remove affected inventory

Stores, distributors, and food-service operators should separate matching pints from sale or service. They should follow Danone's instructions for return or destruction and keep unaffected stock separate.

The FDA notice says unaffected product remains available on shelves. Product shipped going forward is not affected by this recall.

Check replacement products before buying

Do not assume every Salted Caramel Cluster pint is unsafe, and do not assume a matching-looking pint is safe. Check the UPC and best-by date against the newest Danone or FDA notice before buying or serving it.

Danone says the issue has been identified and corrected, but it has not given a date for the product's return. Check official updates before purchasing the flavor again.

Use official sources for updates and refunds

Use the FDA recall notice, the So Delicious consumer FAQ, and verified retailer notices. Social-media posts may leave out the UPC, date range, or updated instructions.

For refunds or a replacement coupon, call 1-833-367-8975. Have the product container and purchase information ready.

Key details from the So Delicious frozen dessert recall

Keep these details together while checking your freezer:

  • Product: So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert
  • Package: Pint container
  • SKU: 136603
  • UPC: 744473476138
  • Best-by dates: On or before April 3, 2028
  • Hazard: Possible small stones and other hard objects in cashew inclusions

  • Announcement date: September 15, 2026
  • Status: Ongoing as of September 18, 2026
  • Refund help: 1-833-367-8975

Recall details can change if Danone or the FDA adds products, dates, or instructions. Check the official sources before sharing an update or acting on an unofficial post.

Conclusion

Check your freezer for So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel Cluster Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert pints. Do not eat a matching product with UPC 744473476138 and a best-by date on or before April 3, 2028. Dispose of it as Danone instructs, then contact the company about a refund or replacement coupon. Seek medical care for swallowing problems, pain, or other symptoms, and call emergency services for choking or trouble breathing.

Vegetables that contain protein

By
Vegetables that contain protein If food prices have you scrambling down the aisles of the grocery store trying to find something that's more affordable than meat but still has protein, know that you're not alone! Back in the days when my grandparents went through the Great Depression, it was really tough times, but they survived through the hardships by growing their own food. There are a lot of veggies that actually do contain protein, and they're packed full of additional nutrients that our bodies all need. Vegetables highest in protein: Vegetables high in protein include artichokes, asparagus, beans, bean sprouts, and beans in general: broccoli, Brussel sprouts, chickpeas, green peas, kale, mushrooms, mustard greens, spinach, sweet corn, and turnip greens. For a few examples: Black beans contain 15 grams of protein in just a 1-cup serving. In fact, a 1/2 cup of cooked beans provides close to 7 grams of protein, which is the same as eating one ounce of meat. As for collar...

What's the difference between griddle cakes, pancakes, hot cakes, skillet cakes, and flapjacks? Have you ever pondered the question, what's the difference between griddle cakes, pancakes, hot cakes, skillet cakes, and flapjacks? Well, today, I would like to tell you the answer to that specific question. Which is that all five of these food items are exactly one and the same.  Homemade country pancakes I have decided to write two separate articles on the subject of how I make homemade pancakes from scratch. The first one was just to take you through the steps of how I make the pancake and waffle mix from scratch. Inside this article, I will be going more into depth on how I use that particular mix to make pancakes. In the other article, I also covered how to make homemade waffles from this same mix. The dry mix is the same for both, but needs to be prepared a little differently when adding the last few ingredients to make the waffle batter. (Hopefully splitting the t...

Why I Don't Preheat My Oven Before Cooking"

By
"Why I Don't Preheat My Oven Before Cooking" In this article, I aim to shed light on my unconventional approach to cooking by explaining the reasons behind why I choose not to preheat my oven. While this may seem like a peculiar practice to some, I assure you that there are valid reasons behind it that I will explore in the following sections. Safety Considerations: Addressing concerns about food safety and doneness Ensuring proper internal temperature: Using a food thermometer One of the common concerns when it comes to skipping preheating is whether the food will cook evenly and reach a safe internal temperature. However, I have found that using a food thermometer effectively eliminates this concern. By inserting a thermometer in the thickest part of the dish, I can ensure that it reaches the recommended temperature for doneness. This method not only guarantees food safety but also prevents overcooking. Adhering to recommended cooking times for specific foods Another mi...

Growing Vegetable Plants in Rockwool Cubes

By
Growing Vegetable Plants in Rockwool Cubes Hey there, fellow gardeners! Today we're going to talk about a cool way to grow your own vegetables using rockwool cubes. It may sound fancy, but it's actually pretty simple and fun. Let's dive in! What You'll Need: First things first, you'll need some rockwool cubes . These are like little sponges that help your plants grow strong and healthy. You'll also need some vegetable seeds, a tray to hold the cubes, and water. I personally use these hydroponic grow trays with dome lids. Step 1: Soak the Cubes Before you plant your seeds, you'll need to soak the rockwool cubes in water. This helps them absorb moisture and provides a good environment for your plants to grow. Step 2: Plant Your Seeds Once your cubes are nice and soaked, it's time to plant your seeds. Make a little hole in the top of each cube and drop a couple of seeds in. Some seeds are so tiny and I generally end up planting more than two in each cube. ...

By
I tried Martha Stewart's slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies recipe- this is how they turned out There's one lady on this earth (besides mom) that I have always simply adored; Martha Stewart. Anyone who knows me knows that Martha has been my lifelong hero since I was a teenager. She's witty, beautiful, and exceptionally talented in so many various ways. Such as DIY home and land renovations to whipping up any tantalizing masterpiece in her kitchen.  Even though I have a multitude of recipes, I had never made  slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies  before. That's until I came across Martha Stewart's recipe for this delightfully delicious, gooey chocolate treat. I followed Martha's techniques and her recipe to the tee, and ooh-la-lah! Her slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies are sinfully exquisite. They are a chocolate lover's dream come true. Martha's slow-cooker brownie recipe takes 3-1/2 hours to bake.

Piquette   Living life with zero waste and sustainability has become a new normal for a lot of people. For example, I try to upcycle as much as possible. Recently, I made concord grape jam, jelly, and concord grape juice from the grapes that I harvested. Today I will be explaining more about how I made Piquette from upcycling all the grape leftovers.  The grape leftovers (skins, seeds, stems) are known as pomace. It's been utilized to make a diluted wine called Piquette for years. Piquette is a low-alcohol drink made by mixing grape leftovers and water then going through the fermentation process. The wine becomes a nice fizzy drink. With an alcohol content of 4 to sometimes over 10 ABV depending on how long the wine is left to ferment. I make Piquette and have gotten the alcohol content of 10 ABV and sometimes over that. Technically, Piquette is not wine, but it closely resembles it once it's a finished product. So how did I make Piquette?  I went through the ...

Low Calorie Meatloaf

By
Low calorie crock-pot meatloaf If you're looking for a meatloaf that doesn't require eggs, bread crumbs, ketchup, etc., then this might be the recipe for you. Today, I am creating a low calorie meatloaf without all the bells and whistles, but it still tastes amazingly good and has fewer calories. The meatloaf will be cooked inside my crock-pot on a meat rack. Doing this allows the excess grease to drip below the meatloaf as it cooks. Which in turn creates a pleasurable, greaseless meatloaf experience. Ingredients: 2 pounds of lean ground beef 1-2 bell peppers, de-seeded and diced finely (depending on size of the peppers), or 1 tablespoon of dried pepper flakes 1-2 tablespoons of onion flakes (amount depends on your preference) 1 teaspoon of garlic powder 1 teaspoon of seasoning salt 2 teaspoons of freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon of soul seasoning Sesame seeds and flax seeds, to sprinkle over the top of your meatloaf (optional) ½ cup of water, do pour inside your crock-...
