The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
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 source text identifies potential glass and metal contamination in a food product. This is a risk-of-harm hazard (foreign objects that could cause injury if ingested), and while the source text does not report actual illnesses or injuries, the hazard is concrete and significant enough to warrant a High severity rating under the rubric criterion for "risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported."
