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 source text does not report any illnesses or injuries from the metal contamination. However, metal in a food product (cream cheese) represents a direct risk of physical injury (choking, oral/throat injury, or dental damage) if consumed. The FDA classified this as Class II, but the hazard itself—foreign object in food—qualifies as a high-severity risk-of-harm product under the rubric.
