Consumers must discard purchased products and seek refunds/replacements; creates uncertainty about product safety across affected brands (Fisher, Southern Style Nuts, Squirrel Brand, Good & Gather); potential health risks for vulnerable populations (children, elderly, immunocompromised individuals).
