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 involves a risk-of-harm product (food) where potential pathogen contamination is possible due to temperature abuse, but no specific illnesses or injuries have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Target Corporation is recalling 2,652 retail units of Bertolli 24oz Shrimp Scampi Linguine. The recall affects products with UPC 31000650100 and Target item number 270-11-141. The affected units were sold at Target store T2780 in Honolulu, Hawaii, between March 23 and March 27, 2018.

The recall was initiated because a shipping container transporting the product from California to Hawaii was not held at the proper temperature. This temperature failure could have allowed the food items to become contaminated with spoilage organisms or pathogens.

Consumers who purchased this specific product at the identified store during the stated dates should stop using it. The source text does not specify a particular consumer action beyond the recall notice, but standard practice for food recalls involves discarding the product or returning it to the point of purchase.
