What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall for undeclared ingredients with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard involves MSG and seasonings not disclosed on the label, which may affect individuals sensitive to these compounds, but no actual harm has been documented.
