After dishing up four bowls of the ice cream, Shearman took a bite of his and began to choke. Foodstuffs spokesperson Emma Wooster confirmed that Shearman brought the needle and opened tub to the Masterton store, explaining a needle had been found while eating the ice cream. Much Moore Ice Cream won a number of trophies at the NZ Ice Cream and Gelato Awards last year.
