The problem with the Slim-Fast products that are causing the recall are that these cans could possibly be contaminated with Bacillus cereus. This is a bacteria, or micro-organism, which (according to Slim-Fast) "may cause diarrhea and possible nausea and/or vomiting." Slim-Fast goes on to state in their press release about the recall that, "The probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote." The recall statements lead us to believe that the product wouldn't be deadly if consumed, but that it could make the consumer really sick, and above anything else, quite uncomfortable for a duration of time.
