The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class III

Class III is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences.

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: Allergen mislabeling on a common major allergen (soy) meets the criteria for High severity. Although no illnesses have been reported and the FDA classified it as Class III, undeclared allergen hazards present significant risk to allergic consumers.
