Reading this record

Five things about this record are not in the record itself, and each one changes how it should be read.

• Class II means the FDA judged a remote probability of serious harm, or a probability of temporary or medically reversible harm. The class is assigned by an agency health hazard evaluation under 21 CFR 7.41, not by the firm.
• The firm started this recall itself. Most FDA food recalls are voluntary, and a recall is a food safety plan working rather than failing. The circumstances in which the agency asks for one instead are set out in 21 CFR 7.45.
• This is one of 12 records covering the same recall event. The FDA opens one enforcement record per product code, so a recall of a product line appears here many times. Counting these records as 12 separate recalls, which almost every published figure does, overstates it by a factor of 12. All 12 of them are listed on this page.
• The recall ran for 3 months, from 17 September 2016 to termination on 7 December 2016. Termination means the agency judged that all reasonable effort had been made, under 21 CFR 7.55, and it says nothing about whether product remained in circulation.
• The distribution pattern names 11 states, and the FDA published the enforcement report 2 months after the firm began the recall.
• The product description on this record names no food this site can classify, so it appears on no food-type page. That is a limit of the description rather than of the recall.

Named in the distribution pattern: Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia. Those pages count recalls by where the RECALLING FIRM sits, which is a different question from where this product went.
