Walmart, Harris Teeter recall fruit bars over glass risk

A popular frozen fruit bar brand is recalling products nationwide after consumers reported finding glass in them.

Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream is voluntarily recalling select Outshine Fruit Bars because of possible contamination with glass, according to an August 18 notice posted by the Food and Drug Administration.

The recall covers selected batches of five flavors sold in six-count packages.

• Strawberry
• Watermelon
• Grape
• Tangerine
• Black Cherry

Additionally, 24-count Outshine Variety Packs are also part of the recall.

The recalled fruit bars were distributed to retailers nationwide, including Walmart and Harris Teeter.

Walmart said the affected products were sold at select Walmart stores in all 50 states and on Walmart.com, while Harris Teeter confirmed that several of the recalled six-count varieties were available at its stores and have since been removed from sale.

Dreyer’s said it initiated the recall out of an abundance of caution following consumer reports of glass found in the products. 

No illnesses or injuries had been reported as of the company’s announcement.

Outshine fruit bars included in the recall

Only specified batches of the following products are affected:

• Outshine Strawberry Fruit Bars, six-count, UPC 041548610047

More Recalls:

Consumers can find the batch code and best-before date on the bottom of the packaging.

Dreyer’s stressed that no other Outshine products or varieties are included in the recall. Only the specified batches of the five six-count flavors and the 24-count variety pack are affected.

Consumers who have one of the recalled products should dispose of it or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Anyone concerned about a possible injury from the product should contact a healthcare provider, the company said.

Dreyer’s has issued recalls before

The latest recall follows another Dreyer’s action involving one of its major frozen-dessert brands last year.

In November 2025, the company recalled a limited number of Häagen-Dazs Chocolate Dark Chocolate Mini Bars because they could contain undeclared wheat, creating a potentially serious or life-threatening risk for people with a wheat allergy or severe sensitivity.

Outshine itself was also subject to a recall in 2023, when Dreyer’s recalled certain No Sugar Added Strawberry Fruit Bars because they could contain undeclared milk.
