What this means for you

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: The source text does not report any illnesses or injuries. However, the agency has classified this as FDA Class I, which per the rubric means the score cannot go below 4, and the label is Severe. Salmonella is a high-risk pathogen that can cause serious illness.
