What this means for you

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.

Plain-English summary

New Seasons Market LLC is recalling 156 packages of Vegan Chocolate Almond Muffins, 4-pack, net wt. 13.6 oz. The product is packaged in a clear clamshell container and carries UPC 8 40600 10955 6. The recall is limited to packages with a "Best by" date up to and including 5/27/2018.

If the product matches the description, consumers should not consume it and should return it to the place of purchase or contact the manufacturer for instructions.
