The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
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 3/5 (High).
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 a high-risk pathogen (Salmonella) without reported illness, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric.
Plain-English summary
Mondelez Global LLC is recalling 32,176 cases of 4/12Z RBS Cheese Multi Pack, 12 Oz. The recall was initiated after the company received notification from supplier Associated Milk Producers, Inc.

The recalled whey powder is used as an ingredient in various Mondelez Global human food products. The impacted cheese products were shipped to consignees in the United States, including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Distribution also included consignees in Anguilla, Antigua/Barbuda, Aruba, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, Costa Rica, Curacao, Guatemala, Jamaica, Panama, Philippines, St. Eustatius, St. Vincent, Suriname, and Trinidad.
Consumers should check their pantries for the affected product and stop using it if found.
