Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to milk; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern.
