What this means for you

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: FDA Class II recall with a risk-of-harm hazard from a foreign metal object. No illnesses or injuries have been reported. The potential presence of a foreign object in a beverage constitutes a choking risk, but since the hazard is theoretical and no harm has occurred, the severity is rated High rather than Severe.
