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: Scored 2 as an FDA Class III labelling error, which the rubric places at 1 or 2; a missing colour additive declaration with no reported illness sits at the upper end.
