What this means for you
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: The FDA classified this as a Class III recall, which the rubric associates with scores of 1 or 2. Given the potential for contamination with filth or health risks, a score of 2 (Moderate) is appropriate as it is not merely cosmetic but involves a low-risk contamination scenario without reported illnesses.
