Snack Buddies Cucumber Coins Recalled Due to Potential Salmonella Contamination
Snack Buddies Cucumber Coins are being recalled due to potential Salmonella contamination. The affected products were distributed exclusively to California food-service establishments, not retail stores.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class I
Class I is a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.
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 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I classification for Salmonella contamination establishes a minimum severity of Severe. Although the contamination is only potential with no reported illnesses or injuries, the high-risk pathogen and official Class I status prevent downgrading below Severe.
