MONTREAL — Federal inspectors say no health threats have been identified at a Quebec ice cream factory they visited after a family claimed to have found a catheter in a tub of the treat. The Francoeur family from Trois-Rivieres told various media they allegedly found the end of a purple plastic catheter tube in a container of Coaticook ice cream last week. The family told local paper Le Nouvelliste they were concerned about their health and that the goal was not to affect the ice cream company or make a quick buck. The ice cream company, which has been in business since 1940, says it has never encountered such an issue. “All our production is filmed, so we see the container from beginning to end and there is nothing that shows that anyone put anything in the container,” Fillion said in an interview Thursday.
