Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I classification requires minimum severity of Severe per recall criteria. While the contamination is potential rather than confirmed and no illnesses have been reported, Listeria monocytogenes is a high-risk pathogen that warrants this classification level.
