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 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: This recall is classified as FDA Class I, which mandates a minimum severity score of 4. Although no illnesses have been reported, potential Salmonella contamination—a high-risk pathogen—in a widely distributed food product warrants a Severe classification.
