‘Those with an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the recalled product,’ stated Frito-Lay through a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory on Wednesday. The affected crisps were sold in retail stores through online distributors in Oregon and Washington. They were sold as far back as November 3 of this year.
Bags under the recall had both the guaranteed fresh date of February 11, 2025, and the manufacturing code 6462307xx or 6463307xx. No allergic reactions have yet been reported. Lay’s Classic Potato Chips, packaged in golden yellow bags, are one of the most recognizable crisps in the US.
Other Lay’s flavors, bag sizes and products and variety packs are not impacted. Consumers who are allergic or sensitive to milk are advised not to eat the crisps and throw them away immediately. The FDA advisory did not include information on possible refunds or replacements for customers. Customers are encouraged to contact Frito-Lay Consumer Relations.
