On its website, the FDA noted that milk is potentially susceptible to “premature product spoilage during shelf life.”
According to FDA guidelines, a Class II recall refers to a “situation in which the use of, or exposure to, a violent product may cause temporary or reversible adverse health consequences or where the likelihood of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
