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: The recall involves allergen mislabeling/cross-contact with pistachios (a common allergen), which corresponds to a severity score of 3 per the rubric.
Plain-English summary
BJ's Wholesale Club is recalling approximately 4,954 units of D&W Gourmet LITE Turkey, packaged in deli bags. This product is a deli service item that was sold at 71 BJ's locations in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia between January 20, 2016, and February 3, 2016.
The recall was initiated because the turkey may have been sliced on the same equipment used for mortadella containing pistachios. This creates a risk of cross-contact with a common allergen.
Consumers who purchased this product should check their deli bags for the specific product and date range. If they have the product, they should discard it or return it to the store of purchase. Individuals with a pistachio or tree nut allergy should avoid consuming the product.
