Our severity reasoning: The agency classified this recall as Class I — a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

The agency gives the reason as: "True Nutrition is recalling Whey Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Concentrate, and Hydrolyzed Whey Protein because they contain undeclared milk."
