What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The rubric sets a floor of 4 for any USDA Class I recall, and FSIS classified this one Class I; the hazard is not theoretical because a consumer found a metal piece in cooked product, though no injuries have been confirmed.
