The popular treat was delivered to stores in nine states, including Georgia, Alabama and Florida, according to a company press release.
The batches were made at the company's plant in Sylacauga, Alabama, on Aug. 26 and "may contain a foreign object," the company said.
"Blue Bell discovered the issue when it was notified by a consumer of the presence of a piece of a plastic tool in a half gallon of Butter Crunch Ice Cream," officials said.

The company investigated and discovered the tool inadvertently ended up in the production process.

Blue Bell said it's received no reports of injuries from the plastic contamination.
Customers can return the ice cream to the store where they bought it for a refund.
