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' and 'Class I'. Per the rubric, if the agency's own classification is FDA Class I or USDA Class I, the score is 5 (Critical) regardless of other factors.

Plain-English summary

Royal Frozen Food, a Los Angeles, California establishment, is recalling approximately 230 pounds of frozen beef and pork products. The recall was initiated because the products were not produced under a fully implemented Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) plan. Additionally, a portion of the products is missing the USDA mark of inspection and may contain egg, an undeclared allergen that was not listed on the product label.

The affected items were produced between September 1, 2014, and September 29, 2015, and were shipped to retail locations in California. The specific products subject to the recall include 17 oz. packages of Precooked Stuffed Grape Leaves with Beef and Rice, 20 oz. packages of Precooked Stuffed Cabbage Leaves with Beef and Rice, and 12 oz. packages of Pot Stickers. Some products bear establishment number Est. 20585, while the Pot Stickers do not contain the USDA mark of inspection.

The issue was discovered by FSIS personnel performing in-plant verification tasks. 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.
