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: FDA Class II recall for undeclared tree nuts (common allergens) on a food product. Per the rubric, allergen issues involving common allergens qualify for Score 3, even without reported illnesses; the absence of reported harm prevents a higher score.
