The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class I

Class I is a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

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 5/5 (Critical).

Highest-severity recall. The hazard can cause serious injury or death. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I designation is the highest severity classification by the agency. This recall meets the critical threshold despite the absence of reported illnesses because FDA Class I recalls are defined as posing serious health consequences, and the potential Salmonella contamination in a food product with wide distribution justifies the critical designation.
