Approximately 137,000 cases of popsicles are being recalled over concerns that they may contain milk, an ingredient not listed on the label.

Unilever issued the recall of its Popsicle Jolly Rancher Frozen Confection Pops on August 21, citing the potential harm to people with sever sensitivity to milk who may consume the product.

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration reported in its recall notice that two cases of allergic reactions to the popsicles had been reported. No other Unilever products have thus far been recalled.

The recalled popsicles are single-serving items “typically sold through channels such as ice cream trucks, concession stands, and grab-and-go freezers throughout the United States,” according to the FDA.

The recall does not apply to Unilever’s Jolly Rancher-flavored popsicles that are sold in multi-pack products at grocery stores and retailers nationwide.

The potentially tainted popsicles were distributed between February 1 and August 15.
