FDA Issues Major Recall for Lay’s Potato Chips Over Milk Allergy Risk

The FDA has announced a Class I recall for more than 6,300 bags of Lay's Classic Potato Chips sold in two states, due to potential milk allergen mislabeling.


Frito-Lay's report has led to a significant recall of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips, affecting consumers in Oregon and Washington, with a severe warning from the FDA concerning undeclared milk.


The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has intensified a recent recall of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips, categorizing it as a Class I recall. This alert affects 6,344 bags of 13-ounce chips distributed in Washington and Oregon, due to the presence of "undeclared milk," which poses a serious health risk for individuals with milk allergies. This action could have dire consequences, including severe allergic reactions or even death.

Originally issued last month, the recall covers chips purchased as far back as November 3, 2024. Consumers in the impacted states are urged to check their pantries; bags affected carry a "guaranteed fresh" date of February 11, 2025, and will have manufacturing codes 6462307xx or 6463307xx.

The FDA defines a Class I recall as a scenario where there is a reasonable probability that exposure to a violative product could lead to serious health issues or death. Given that milk is recognized as one of the eight major food allergens under the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act, individuals susceptible to milk allergies are particularly at risk.

As of now, the FDA has not reported any known allergic reactions associated with the recalled chips. Lay's other products, flavors, and sizes remain unaffected by this recall. The decision to upgrade the recall's severity hasn't been elaborated on further, especially after the agency implemented a temporary halt on broad health communications amidst restructuring.
