Key Evidence

Verified August 18, 2026
  • CBS News, ABC News, Fox 10, USA on August 18, 2026, ClickOnDetroit, WGRZ, and Allrecipes all report a voluntary recall of several Outshine Fruit Bar flavors because of possible glass or foreign-material contamination.

  • The reports identify five flavors and say the affected products were distributed nationwide.

  • The recall was announced by Dreyer’s, making the company’s announcement the primary basis for the reports.

The reporting

What the Evidence Shows

Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream announced a voluntary recall involving five Outshine Fruit Bar flavors: Strawberry, Watermelon, Grape, Tangerine, and Black Cherry. The affected products were six-count boxes containing 2.5-ounce bars, and reports indicate that selected lots were distributed to retailers nationwide.

The reported reason for the recall is possible foreign-material contamination involving glass. The available reporting describes a potential risk and does not establish that glass was present in every recalled product. USA Today also reported that the affected batches had best-before dates ranging from June 2027 through November 2027.

The relevant food-recall reports consistently support the core claim. The three MeidasTouch-related sources concern unrelated political content and do not provide evidence about the Outshine recall.
