What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an allergen mislabeling recall involving coconut, a common food allergen. The source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, making the hazard theoretical, which per the rubric places it at most at a score of 3. Undeclared allergens on food products present a direct risk of harm to allergic consumers.
