Piazza Produce Recalls Chili Powder for Missing Ingredient Labeling

Piazza Produce, Inc. is recalling various sizes of chili powder because the product labeling does not contain a listing of ingredients.

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 III, which indicates a remote probability of adverse health consequences. The hazard is a minor labeling error (missing ingredients) rather than a direct contamination or high-risk pathogen, fitting the Moderate severity criteria.
