What this means for you

Highest-severity recall. Risk of serious injury or death is documented or strongly suspected. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class I, and the source text explicitly reports one case of anaphylactic reaction, which meets the criteria for a Critical severity score.

Plain-English summary

Sequel Naturals Ltd is recalling Vega One, all-in one nutrition bars in the Double Chocolate flavor. The recall is due to the inadvertent addition of milk ingredients to the chocolate coating by the raw material supplier. This creates a risk of allergic reactions for consumers with milk allergies, as the product is labeled as gluten-free but does not explicitly declare milk as an ingredient on the front label, though it notes the facility processes dairy.

The affected product is the 2.2 oz (63g) bar, identified by the lot code 13026U 14-Feb and UPC 838766070032. The recall involves 1,328 boxes and 808 single bars that were distributed nationwide. The source text notes one report of an anaphylactic reaction associated with the product.

Consumers with milk allergies should not consume the recalled bars. Those who have purchased the product should check the packaging for the specific lot code and UPC listed above. If the product matches the description, consumers should stop using it and contact the recalling firm for instructions on return or disposal.
