Garden Harvest Recalls Unlicensed Acidified Salsa Products
Garden Harvest is recalling 52 cases of A Bit of a Bite Salsa Three Sisters because the firm was manufacturing acidified foods without a license.
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 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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is related to regulatory compliance (unlicensed manufacturing) rather than a specific confirmed contamination event.
