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 II, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries. The hazard is a theoretical risk of unsafe consumption due to temperature control failure, which aligns with the criteria for a moderate severity score involving low-risk contamination or voluntary precautionary measures without reported harm.
