What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a high-risk pathogen (Listeria) in a ready-to-eat food product. Although the agency classified it as Class II, the rubric specifies that high-risk pathogens without reported illness warrant a score of 3 (High).
