Why these products were recalled

The products have a wrong expiration date on their labeling, 5 years instead of 2 years.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
