What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
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) without reported illnesses, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric.

The recall affects products manufactured between August 20, 2012, and September 10, 2012, with sell-by dates on or before September 17, 2012.
