Frito-Lay Recalls Lay’s Classic Potato Chips in Oregon and Washington Due to Undeclared Milk
Frito-Lay has issued a recall of its Lay’s Classic Potato Chips in Oregon and Washington state due to undeclared milk that may be present in the product. The recall affects a limited number of 13 oz. bags of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips with a “guaranteed fresh” date of February 11 and a manufacturing code of either “6462307xx” or “6463307xx”.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified the recall as a Class 1 recall, its highest risk classification, which means that exposure or consumption of the chips could cause “serious adverse health consequences or death” for individuals with a milk allergy or severe sensitivity.
The recalled chips were distributed to certain retail stores and e-commerce distributors in Oregon and Washington state as early as November 3. Consumers with Lay’s chips that meet the specified criteria are advised to discard the chips immediately, especially if someone in their household has a milk allergy.
Frito-Lay was alerted to the undeclared milk after being contacted by a customer and has reported no allergic reactions related to this recall. The company is urging consumers to check their products and discard any affected bags.
Anyone with questions or concerns about the recall can contact Frito-Lay’s consumer affairs department at 1-800-352-4477.
