Shirley's Neutral Whoopie Pie Mix recalled for potential metal contamination

Puratos Corporation is recalling Shirley's Neutral Whoopie Pie MB Bag 50# (Batch Number 10584012) due to potential metal contamination. Consumers should not use the product.

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 metal contamination. However, metal contamination in food represents a direct risk of physical harm (choking, internal injury, dental damage), and the source does not explicitly state that no injuries have occurred. This is a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported, placing it in the High (score 3) category per the rubric.
