Frito-Lay has issued a recall for some of its Tostitos tortilla chips.
"Frito-Lay today issued a recall of a limited number of 13 oz. bags of Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips that could include nacho cheese tortilla chips, and therefore may contain undeclared milk," the recall notice reads on the website of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
"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," the notice says.
"The product included in this recall was distributed to a mix of retailers including grocery, convenience and drug stores, as well as e-commerce distributors, in the following 13 states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia. Consumers would have been able to purchase these chips as early as March 7, 2025," the FDA wrote on its website.
The FDA noted that the recall is as a precaution because no injuries have been reported thus far.
"No allergic reactions related to this matter have been reported to date. No other Tostitos products, flavors, sizes or variety packs are recalled," wrote the FDA. "Less than 1,300 bags are included in the recall."
"If consumers have an allergy or sensitivity to milk, they should not consume the product and discard it immediately. Frito-Lay has informed the FDA of this action," the FDA noted.
A news release from Frito-Lay adds, "Consumers with the product described above can visit the Frito-Lay Contact Us page here or call 1-800-352-4477 (9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. CST, Monday-Friday." The release contains a chart with more details on the recalled product.
