Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class I recall involving a high-risk pathogen (Salmonella) in a ready-to-eat food product distributed nationwide. Although no illnesses are explicitly reported in the source text, Class I recalls are FDA's most serious category and the severity score cannot be below 4 per the rubric.
