The FDA has classified this as a Class I recall, its most serious category, used where there is a reasonable probability of serious health consequences or death. People with a milk allergy face a risk of a serious reaction from a product that does not declare it.

Because the bulk cases were repackaged after distribution, the milk may not be declared on the smaller units consumers see. Anyone with a milk allergy who is unsure should avoid the product and check with the seller.
