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 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The agency classified this recall as Class I — 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. On that classification alone this is scored Severe; a score of Critical is reserved for recalls where a death or serious injury was reported. The agency gives the reason as: "Unreported Allergens"

Plain-English summary

Ready Dough Pizza Inc. is recalling approximately 8,018 pounds of frozen Cuban-style pizza products, including pepperoni, ham, bacon, and chorizo varieties. The recall was initiated because the products were produced without the benefit of federal inspection and do not bear the USDA mark of inspection. Additionally, the products contain known allergens—milk, wheat, and soybeans—that are either missing from the ingredient labels or incorrectly listed.

The affected products were produced between January 12, 2022, and July 13, 2022, and were shipped to retail locations in Delaware, Florida, and Pennsylvania. The items are sold in standard box packages or with store-specific labels at retail stores. FSIS discovered the issue during routine surveillance activities.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers who have purchased these items are urged not to consume them and should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
