SIB, Inc. Recalls Bakehouse Granola for Undeclared Milk Allergen

SIB, Inc. is recalling specific lots of Bakehouse Granola because the packaging fails to list milk as an ingredient, posing a risk to consumers with milk allergies.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

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 3/5 (High).

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 allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (milk), which fits the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric, as it poses a risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction.

Plain-English summary

SIB, Inc. is voluntarily recalling specific lots of Bakehouse Granola, including 12 oz and 16 oz packages, due to a labeling error. The product does not list the source of the unsalted butter ingredient as milk, which is a major food allergen.

Consumers with a milk allergy or severe sensitivity to milk are at risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.
