Classic Chips Recall – The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has raised the alarm on Lay’s Classic Potato Chips, elevating the recall to its highest level. This urgent update comes as the agency discovered undeclared milk in certain bags, posing a severe risk to consumers with milk allergies or sensitivities.
Potential Life-Threatening Risk for Allergy Sufferers
The FDA has classified this as a Class I recall, indicating a “reasonable probability” that consuming these chips could lead to serious health consequences or even death for individuals with milk allergies. This classification underscores the gravity of the situation and the importance of immediate consumer action.Key details of the recall include:
- Product:- 13 oz bags of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips
- Distribution:-Oregon and Washington retail stores and distributors
- Purchase dates:- As early as November 3, 2024
- “Guaranteed Fresh” date:- February 11, 2025
- Manufacturing codes:- 6462307xx or 6463307xx
Frito-Lay, the manufacturer, urges consumers with milk allergies or sensitivities to check their pantries and immediately discard any affected products. The company emphasizes that no other Lay’s products are impacted by this recall.
While no allergic reactions have been reported to date, the potential for severe health risks remains high. Milk allergies can cause symptoms ranging from mild discomfort to life-threatening anaphylaxis, making it crucial for affected individuals to avoid exposure.
This recall follows another recent Class I alert issued by the FDA for Braga Fresh Marketside Broccoli Florets sold at Walmart, due to potential Listeria contamination. The broccoli recall affects products sold in 20 states, identifiable by UPC code 6 81131 32884 5 and Lot Code BFFG327A6.
As these recalls highlight the ongoing importance of food safety vigilance, consumers are advised to stay informed about potential risks in their pantry and freezer items. Always check product labels and stay alert to recall notices to protect yourself and your family from unexpected food-related health hazards.
