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 pathogen contamination due to temperature abuse, which fits the rubric criterion for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.'
