Wegmans is recalling Ready To Bake Double Chocolate Croissants due to undeclared soy lecithin. The product may pose a serious risk to consumers with soy allergies.

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 FDA Class II allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (soy). No illnesses or injuries are reported. Per the severity rubric, allergen mislabeling on common allergens without reported illness warrants a High (3) severity score.
