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: The agency classified this as an FDA Class II recall. Per the rubric, FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects are rated Severe (4). While no injuries are explicitly reported, the lack of a scheduled process for low-acid canned food presents a significant safety risk that aligns with the Severe criteria for Class II recalls.
