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: FDA Class III recall due to manufacturing in an unlicensed facility with potential under-processing. The hazard is theoretical rather than confirmed; Class III recalls are typically scored 1–2, with this food safety concern warranting Moderate severity.
