Frito-Lay has recalled its popular potato chip products after discovering they may contain undeclared allergens.
Some bags of Miss Vicky’s Spicy Dill Pickle Potato Chips may contain undeclared milk, according to a March 3 notice from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The bag may contain jalapeño chips, another Miss Vicky’s potato chip flavor, but this one contains milk.
According to an FDA notice, people with a milk allergy may have a serious allergic reaction if they consume potato chips. Anyone without a dairy allergy can safely consume chips.
Frito-Lay has no reported allergic reactions and no other Miss Vicki products have been recalled, according to the notice.
“A limited number of 8-ounce bags of Miss Vicki’s Spicy Dill Pickle Potato Chips are being recalled because they may contain jalapeño-flavored potato chips, and therefore may contain undeclared milk allergens. Unless the consumer has a dairy allergy or sensitivity, this product is safe to consume,” Frito-Lay said in a statement to USA TODAY.

Where were the recalled chips sold?
Frito-Lay said the recalled chips were distributed to various retailers in six states as early as January 15:

What should I do if my chip is recalled?
