FRIDAY, Dec. 20, 2024 -- Holy chip! Frito-Lay has issued a limited recall of select 13-oz bags of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips due to the potential presence of undeclared milk, which could pose a serious health risk to individuals with a milk allergy.

According to a report released by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the affected bags have a "guaranteed fresh" date of Feb. 11, 2025, and the manufacturing codes 6462307xx or 6463307xx.

These chips were distributed in Oregon and Washington through retail stores and online distributors, a media report shows.

Consumers may have purchased them starting in early November.

The report also shows that Frito-Lay clarified that no other Lay’s products or sizes are impacted by the recall.

While no illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported so far, individuals with allergies or severe sensitivities to milk are advised to avoid consuming the chips and discard them immediately.
