New Seasons Market Recalls Vegan Chocolate Almond Muffins for Allergen Labeling
New Seasons Market LLC is recalling Vegan Chocolate Almond Muffins because the packaging fails to declare almonds as an ingredient.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class III
Class III is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences.
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 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: The recall involves allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (almond), which meets the criteria for a High severity score (3) under the rubric, despite the agency's Class III classification.
