I like Blue Bell but it's not the best ice cream I've ever had. So many people on my fb feed have been "barely got these two half gallons!" Or posting pictures of them eating copious amounts - hopefully the hysteria will be over in a week.

Bluebell knew they had issues with listeria as early as 2013, and did nothing. Not even a warning to the public. They continued to sell their ice cream to hospitals, knowing sick people are especially susceptible to listeria. I love Bluebell, but will not buy it anymore, simply because of their terrible business ethics.

Glad I am not the only one who doesn't like Blue Bell (I prefer the homemade stuff back in NJ). If I buy ice cream here it is Ben & Jerry's or ice cream sandwhiches.

I don't really get the Blue Bell obsession. It's very good ice cream but I can't say it's the best I've ever had. I live in New England and I feel like we have a lot more choices as far as brands go. Is there a limited selection as far as 'local' ice cream down there? I'd have to say in the TX/OK area I much prefer Braums to Blue Bell.
