What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I recalls warrant a minimum severity of 4. The undeclared egg allergen poses a serious risk to individuals with egg allergies, and allergen mislabeling on a common major allergen constitutes a significant public health hazard.
