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 FDA classified this as a Class III recall, which indicates a remote probability of adverse health consequences. The hazard involves an unapproved herbicide in a food ingredient, which fits the criteria for a moderate severity precautionary recall.
