KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Belfonte Ice Cream is recalling two types of ice cream that contain peanut butter because of the potential of salmonella contamination.
The Kansas City-based company announced Tuesday that it was voluntarily recalling 56-ounce containers of Home Run Sundae and Mama's Choice Reverse Peanut Butter Pie. The ice cream was sold between April 2010 and October 2012 in retail and convenience stores in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
The company says the recall was prompted by Sunland Inc.'s recall of everything made in its New Mexico plant after a peanut butter sold at Trader Joe's groceries was linked to a salmonella outbreak.
Belfonte says Sunland notified its peanut butter blend supplier that their products could be contaminated with salmonella. Belfonte has received no reports of illnesses caused by its ice cream.

RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. (AP) — Clemmy's Ice Cream is voluntarily recalling all of its Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip because the peanut butter in it might contain salmonella.
The pints involved have the UPC symbol 8 94509 00231 9 and expiration dates ranging from February 2013 to August 2014.
The peanut butter in the ice cream came from Sunland, Inc., a New Mexico peanut butter manufacturing plant.
No illnesses have been traced to Clemmy's ice cream, but at least 35 salmonella illnesses in 19 states have been traced to Trader Joe's peanut butter, which came from the Sunland plant.
Clemmy's is located in Rancho Mirage, southeast of Palm Springs, and makes sugar, lactose and gluten-free ice cream. No other flavors are involved.
