A year after ice cream recall, Blue Bell releases first new flavor

Just shy of one year from when Blue Bell reintroduced its products back into grocery stores after a months-long recall and break to clean its facilities after a listeria outbreak, the Brenham-based creamery has launched a new flavor.

Cookie Two Step is in stores starting today, and it’s the first new product that the company has released since the massive recall last year that threatened to shutter the company.

Pre-recall, released at least a new flavor every year. Its iconic brand also took up far more shelf space (and advertising space) than it does now, but the company seems to be recovering from the massive recall and news of at least three deaths linked to contaminated ice cream.

According to a release, the new flavor is a combination of cookies and cream and chocolate chip cookie dough ice creams and is being delivered to grocery stores throughout Texas today.
