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 source explicitly classifies the recall as 'High - Class I' and 'Class I'. According to the rubric, if the agency's own classification is FDA Class I or USDA Class I, the score must be at least 4. Since no deaths are reported, the score is 4 (Severe) rather than 5 (Critical).

Plain-English summary

Pleasant House Bakery, LLC, a Chicago, Illinois establishment, is recalling an undetermined amount of steak and chicken pie products. The recall was initiated because the products were distributed without the benefit of inspection and contained undeclared allergens, including eggs, milk, and wheat. The affected items were produced between January 1, 2014, and August 14, 2015.

The specific products subject to recall are 10-ounce individually wrapped Steak & Ale Pie and 10-ounce individually wrapped Chicken Balti Pie. These items were distributed to restaurants and retail establishments in Chicago, Illinois, and New Buffalo, Michigan. The issue was discovered when an FSIS employee determined that the product was being sold in a retail establishment in the Chicago area.

FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers who are concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. The recall is classified as Class I, indicating a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, the regulated product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.
