The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class I

Class I is a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

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: The agency classified this recall as Class I — a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death. On that classification alone this is scored Severe; a score of Critical is reserved for recalls where a death or serious injury was reported. The agency gives the reason as: "The ingredients statement declared wheat, soybean oil, eggs, soy lecithin, and WHEY. The ingredients statement does not declare Milk as a source of whey and the Contains statement does not declare Milk."

Surtidoras Bakery Inc is recalling 21 packages of Marble Muffins, net weight 1.74 lbs., packaged in rigid plastic clam shell containers. The product was distributed in Washington. The recall involves packages with SELL BY dates of 03/18/19 and up to 3/26/19.

The recall was initiated because the ingredients statement lists whey but does not declare milk as a source of whey. Additionally, the 'CONTAINS' statement on the packaging does not declare milk. This mislabeling poses a risk to consumers with milk allergies.
