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 2/5 (Moderate).
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class III classification with no reported illnesses or injuries. While bromate exceeds the regulatory maximum contaminant level, Class III recalls are typically scored 1-2 per the severity rubric.
