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 is classified by FDA as Class I, which typically requires a score of at least 4. However, the source text does not report any confirmed illnesses or hospitalizations associated with these products. Under the rubric, when a high-risk pathogen (Salmonella) is present without reported illness, the score is High (3), but the FDA Class I classification suggests a higher potential risk. Given the explicit Class I designation in the source metadata, the score is elevated to 3, which represents a significant health hazard with potential for serious illness.
