Almark Foods is recalling Peckish boiled eggs after FDA and CDC identified a Listeria monocytogenes genetic match between facility samples and patient cases.
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 5/5 (Critical).
Highest-severity recall. The hazard can cause serious injury or death. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that the genetic match is associated with 'case patient samples associated with an illness outbreak,' which implies reported illnesses. Under the rubric, FDA Class I recalls involving reported illness or serious injury are classified as Critical (Score 5).
