Just because you found a pill does not mean that you are entitled to anything. If it was found before you ingested it, then what damages did you incur? Chances are that you are lucky that you found it but this matter has no value from the perspective of a lawsuit.

None. You were not hurt. You should report it to whomever you purchased the ice cream from, however, so they can take corrective steps for future customers.
