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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically involves a low probability of serious adverse health consequences. The hazard is an undeclared additive (sunset yellow FCF) rather than a high-risk pathogen or common allergen, and no illnesses are reported.
