What this means for you

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: This is an FDA Class I recall for a high-risk pathogen (Salmonella) without reported illnesses. Per the rubric, high-risk pathogens such as Salmonella without reported illness warrant a High (3) severity score, though the Class I classification would normally indicate a Severe (4) rating; however, the absence of any reported illness and the source text stating only "potential presence" limits the score to 3.
