The agency’s classification
USDA FSIS: Class I
Class I is 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.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 5/5 (Critical).
Highest-severity recall. The hazard can cause serious injury or death. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The source metadata explicitly classifies the recall as 'High - Class I'. According to the rubric, if the agency's own classification is FDA Class I or USDA Class I, the score is never below 4, and the presence of a Class I designation for a high-risk pathogen like Listeria aligns with the Critical (5) severity level for verification purposes.
Plain-English summary
Comeaux's Inc., a Breaux Bridge, Louisiana establishment, is recalling approximately 14 pounds of pork products that may be adulterated with Listeria monocytogenes. The recalled product consists of 1-lb. vacuum-sealed packages containing diced “CAJUN HICKORY SMOKED PORK TASSO.” The smoked pork tasso was packaged on Dec. 22, 2015, and bears establishment number “EST. 20513” inside the USDA mark of inspection and package code number “42358.”
The problem was discovered during routine FSIS testing. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. The items were shipped to retail locations in Louisiana. FSIS and the company are concerned that some product may be frozen and in consumers' freezers.
Consumption of food contaminated with L. monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
