Check Your Chips, Frito-Lay Recalling Bags

Check your chips. Frito-Lay is recalling potato chips for potential Salmonella.

Select Jalapeño Flavored Lay’s Kettle Cooked potato chips and Jalapeño Flavored Miss Vickie’s Kettle Cooked potato chips are being voluntarily recalled due to the potential presence of Salmonella in the seasoning, according to the FDA.

The recall comes after a supplier’s recent recall of a seasoning blend which includes jalapeño powder that could contain Salmonella. Although no Salmonella was found in the seasoning supplied to Frito-Lay, the company decided to recall these products out of an abundance of caution.

There have been no illnesses caused by the potato chips that can be found in retail stores and vending machines.

All sizes of the following two products that have a “guaranteed fresh” date of JUL 4 or prior printed on the front upper panel of the package:

Jalapeño Flavored Lay’s Kettle Cooked potato chips
Jalapeño Flavored Miss Vickie’s Kettle Cooked potato chips

All of the following multipacks that have a “use by” date of JUN 20 or prior and a “guaranteed fresh” date of JUL 4 or prior printed on individual recalled product packages.

12 count Lay’s Kettle Cooked Multipack Sack
20 count Frito-Lay Bold Mix Sack
30 count Miss Vickie’s Multipack Tray
30 count Lay’s Kettle Cooked Multipack Tray
32 count Miss Vickie’s Multipack Box

No other flavors of Lay’s Kettle Cooked potato chips or Miss Vickie’s potato chips are impacted. Jalapeño Cheddar Flavored Lay’s Kettle Cooked 40% Less Fat potato chips are not impacted or being recalled.

Frito-Lay is working with the FDA to ensure the recalled products are removed from store shelves.
