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: This is a Class II FDA recall for allergen mislabeling (undeclared walnut). Walnut is a major allergen, and undeclared allergens present a serious health risk to allergic consumers. No illnesses or injuries have been reported. This meets the High severity criterion for allergen mislabeling on common allergens without reported illness.
