What this means for you

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is a temperature control failure without specific pathogen identification, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.
