The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class I
Class I is a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 5/5 (Critical).
Highest-severity recall. The hazard can cause serious injury or death. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class I, which mandates a severity score of at least 4. Additionally, the hazard involves Salmonella, a high-risk pathogen, and the source text explicitly states the agency classification is Class I, which per the rubric rules ('If the agency's own classification is FDA Class I... never go below 4') and the general criteria for Class I (reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences) aligns with the highest severity tier for food recalls involving pathogens.
