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: This is an FDA Class I recall involving high-risk pathogens (Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes) in a ready-to-eat food product with widespread distribution. Although no illnesses are explicitly reported in the source text, the combination of Class I classification and the serious health risks posed by these pathogens warrants a Severe rating.
