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 Listeria monocytogenes contamination in a food product. Per the severity rubric, FDA Class I recalls must score no lower than 4. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported in the source text, Listeria is a high-risk pathogen, and the wide distribution of the affected product justifies a Severe rating.
