What should I do if I have it?

Do not eat it. Return it to the store for a refund or throw it away. If you have symptoms after eating it, contact a doctor.

What does an unclassified recall mean?

The FDA assigns a class once it has assessed the health risk. Until then the recall is listed without one.
