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 2/5 (Moderate).
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: This is an FDA Class II voluntary recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is an undeclared food color additive, which constitutes a labeling violation but not a high-risk contamination. No hospitalization or injury reports exist, fitting the Moderate severity category.
