Faye's Texas Naturals Chili Petin Recalled for pH Testing Violations

Faye's Texas Naturals is recalling 1,140 jars of Chili Petin Picante Caliente because pH levels were not tested as required by acidified food regulations.

What this means for you

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, which typically involves a reasonable probability of temporary or medically reversible health consequences. The hazard is a regulatory compliance failure (lack of pH testing) rather than a confirmed contamination or injury, fitting the Moderate severity criteria for low-risk or procedural issues.
