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 for a common allergen (milk), which corresponds to a severity score of 3 (High) according to the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Individuals with a milk allergy or milk sensitivity should avoid consuming the product. The source text does not specify a contact method for refunds or further instructions.
