Oasis Trading Co. is recalling 1,200 containers of Silver Source Soy Salad Oil due to reports of high density polyethylene resin trim rings in the bottles.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the hazard involves a foreign material (plastic resin) in food. While no injuries are reported, the presence of non-food material in a consumable product warrants a moderate severity rating under the rubric for low-risk contamination or voluntary precautionary recalls.
