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 for Salmonella contamination, a high-risk pathogen. The source text does not report any confirmed illnesses or injuries; the hazard is based on the contamination risk itself. Under the rubric, high-risk pathogens without reported illness cases score a maximum of 3.
