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 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 source metadata explicitly classifies the recall as 'High - Class I' and 'Class I'. Per the rubric, if the agency's own classification is FDA Class I or USDA Class I, the score must never go below 4.

Plain-English summary

B. Roberts Foods, a Charlotte, North Carolina establishment, is recalling approximately 202 pounds of individual serving grilled chicken entrées. The recall is due to misbranding and the presence of an undeclared allergen. The product contains milk, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label.

The affected product consists of 10 oz. (248 g) refrigerated packages of "Harris Teeter, Fresh Foods Market, Deli-Bakery, All Natural Grilled Chicken Strips (minimally processed, no artificial ingredients)." The top and bottom labels on the packaging are incorrect; they should read "Grilled Chicken Breast with Sundried Tomato Pasta." The product was produced on July 10, 2014, and bears the establishment number "Est. 19198" inside the USDA mark of inspection with package code "50223" and a "Sell By" date of "07/27/14."

The product was distributed to retail stores in Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. The issue was discovered by a grocery store employee who identified the incorrect labeling. FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
