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 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I recall for potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The agency classification as Class I—combined with Listeria being a high-risk pathogen—requires a minimum Severe rating per the recall rubric, even though no illnesses have been reported.
