Texas-based grocery chain H-E-B has announced a voluntary recall of some of its ice cream products because they may contain bits of metal.

The company announced on its website that certain sizes and flavors of EconoMax and Hill Country Fare ice creams and Creamy Creations sherbets sold in Texas and Mexico were affected.

The website announcement includes a complete list of the container sizes and flavors which might be affected.

According to H-E-B some of the processing machinery might have broken, with pieces ending up in the ice cream.
