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: The recall is classified as FDA Class I due to possible Salmonella contamination, a high-risk pathogen. Per the rubric, high-risk pathogens without reported illness warrant a score of 3, while the Class I classification prevents a score lower than 4 only if specific injury criteria are met, but the 'no reported illness' rule caps the score at 3 for theoretical hazards.
