Simply Good Foods Co. is recalling Atkins Dark Chocolate Royale Protein Rich Shakes due to contamination that rendered the product non-sterile, creating potential for spoilage.

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 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving actual contamination that rendered the product non-sterile. A non-sterile ready-to-drink beverage represents a risk-of-harm product where illness has not yet been reported, meeting the criteria for High severity.
