The FDA defines a Class 1 recall as “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." The affected products that fall into this new classification include Cal Yee Farms dark chocolate almonds,

On Dec. 12, 2024, Cal Yee Farm, a California-based company, announced a recall on a variety of products, including dark chocolate walnuts, apricots and yogurt-coated almonds, after the FDA discovered that they weren’t labeled properly.

A chocolate recall was recently upgraded to warn consumers of a potential to “cause serious adverse health consequences of death.”
