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 III, which typically corresponds to a score of 1 or 2. However, the hazard involves undeclared soy, a common allergen, which elevates the risk slightly above a purely cosmetic or documentation issue, fitting the 'Moderate' category for minor labeling errors or low-risk contamination.
