Popular tortilla chips urgently recalled for serious health risk
Frito-Lay has issued a recall on certain bags of Tostitos chips over an undeclared allergen. The company issued a press release on Wednesday about a limited number of 13-ounce bags of Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips being recalled in the U.S. The affected bags could mistakenly have nacho cheese tortilla chips, meaning they may contain an undeclared milk allergen. The recalled product was distributed to a range of retailers across 13 states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. The affected product has a UPC of 28400 52848 and a 'guaranteed fresh' date of May 20, 2025. The bags will also have certain manufacturing codes, which are listed in the press release. Chip bags were first sold on March 7, with less than 1,300 bags included in the recall. There have not been any reported allergic reactions due to the product. No other Tostitos products have been affected by the recall. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), consuming undeclared allergens 'may result in adverse health outcomes for certain individuals.' The most common undeclared allergens are wheat, shellfish, eggs, fish, peanuts, milk, tree nuts, and soybeans. This isn't the first time that Frito-Lay has recalled a product due to an undeclared allergen. In November, a limited number of Lay's Classic Potato Chips bags were recalled because they may have contained undeclared milk, which Frito-Lay learned 'after being alerted through a consumer contact.' The recalled product was sent to retail stores and distributors in Oregon and Washington, and it was available for purchase as early as November 3, 2024. Two months later, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) elevated this recall to a Class I recall, which is 'a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.' Within the last month, there has been a slew of food and drink recalls. Earlier this week, 864 cases of Coca-Cola — each of which had 12 cans — were recalled because they were contaminated with plastic. This means that more than 10,000 cans of soda were affected by the recall. The affected cases of Coca-Cola were distributed to retailers in Illinois and Wisconsin. Last week, Aldi issued a voluntary recall on 400 cases of Happy Farm's Colby Jack Deli Sliced Cheese, which included 12 plastic pouches of blended Colby and Monterey cheese slices each. According to the FDA, the Aldi product may contain stainless steel fragments, and exposure to such contaminants could cause temporary health risks. It's unclear how the potential metal products got into the cheese. Also earlier this month, Dessert Holdings, LLC announced that it was recalling Target brand Favorite Day's New York Style Cheesecake, sold in a six-ounce container with two slices of cake. The recall is due to mislabeled packaging, resulting in undeclared pecans in the products.

Coca-Cola cases recalled due to plastic contamination
Coca-Cola has issued a recall on select cases of its soda due to foreign object contamination. Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC issued the voluntary recall earlier this month, according to a report shared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). A total of 864 cases — each of which has 12 Coca-Cola cans — have been recalled because they were contaminated with plastic. This means that more than 10,000 cans of soda were affected by the recall. According to the FDA, each of the affected cans has a UPC of 0 49000-00634 6. The targeted packs of 12 cans have a UPC of 0 49000-02890 4. The recalled cases of Coca-Cola were distributed to retailers in Illinois and Wisconsin. The action was classified as a 'Class II' recall on Monday, which is a 'situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote,' according to the FDA. The Independent has contacted Reyes Coca-Cola Bottling, LLC for comment. The news comes as food and drink recalls continue to be on the rise. Last week, Aldi issued a voluntary recall on 400 cases of Happy Farm's Colby Jack Deli Sliced Cheese, which included 12 plastic pouches of blended Colby and Monterey cheese slices each. According to the FDA, the Aldi product may contain stainless steel fragments, and exposure to such contaminants could cause temporary health risks. It's unclear how the potential metal products got into the cheese. Days earlier, Dessert Holdings, LLC announced that it was recalling a Target brand cheesecake. The product is Favorite Day's New York Style Cheesecake, sold in a six-ounce container with two slices of cake. The cheesecake was recalled due to mislabeled packaging, resulting in undeclared pecans in the products. Customers who 'have an allergy or severe sensitivity to pecans run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions' if they consume this cheesecake, states a press release concerning the recall. Recalled cheesecakes were sent to Target Distribution Centers in California, Florida, Iowa, Ohio, and Texas. The product was sold at Target stores in these states. Also this month, Nestlé U.S. issued a voluntary recall on a limited supply of its Stouffer's and Lean Cuisine meals due to the potential presence of 'wood-like material.' The food conglomerate said the recalled products had been distributed 'at major retailers' between September 2024 and March 2025. Nestlé said the company launched an investigation after consumers contacted them to report multiple issues — one involving a potential choking incident.

Cheesecake sold at Target in five states recalled due to undeclared tree nut allergen
A popular cheesecake sold at Target has been recalled due to an undeclared ingredient. In a press release on Wednesday, Dessert Holdings LLC announced that it was recalling a Target brand cheesecake. The product is Favorite Day's New York Style Cheesecake, sold in a six-ounce container with two slices of cake. The cheesecake was recalled due to mislabeled packaging, resulting in undeclared pecans in the products. Customers who 'have an allergy or severe sensitivity to pecans run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions,' if they consume this cheesecake, as noted in the press release. Dessert Holdings LLC received a customer complaint on March 14 about the product containing pecans, even though that wasn't declared on the label. The labeling issue has now been resolved and 'no other manufacturing dates or lots are impacted.' There have not been any reported illnesses due to the product, as of March 21. The impacted product was distributed between February 14 and March 7. They have the Lot code 25028A1 000039133, printed on the side of the plastic packaging, and UPC of 0 85239 09690 1. Recalled cheesecakes were sent to Target Distribution Centers in California, Florida, Iowa, Ohio, and Texas. The product was sold at Target stores in these states. Customers who have the Target brand cheesecake should not consume it. They can also contact Target Guest Relations for a full refund. Dessert Holdings LLC's announcement comes days after Nestlé U.S. issued a voluntary recall on a limited supply of its Stouffer's and Lean Cuisine meals due to the potential presence of 'wood-like material.' The food conglomerate said the recalled products had been distributed 'at major retailers' between September 2024 and March 2025. The recalled meals include the following meals made between August 2024 and March 2025: Lean Cuisine Butternut Squash Ravioli, Lean Cuisine Spinach Artichoke Ravioli, Lean Cuisine Lemon Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry, and Stouffer's Party Size Chicken Lasagna. Nestlé said the company launched an investigation after consumers contacted them to report multiple issues — one involving a potential choking incident. Earlier this month, Savage Pet also became the latest pet food brand to recall some of its cat food products due to the possibility that it is contaminated with bird flu. The recall extended to 66 of the company's 84-oz boxes and 74 small, 21-oz boxes. Each item had a best-by date of November 15, 2026. These boxes were distributed to retailers across California, Colorado, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington. Pet owners who may have fed the food to their cats should monitor their animals for symptoms of the bird flu, also known as Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1. According to the FDA, bird flu symptoms include 'fever, lethargy, low appetite, reddened or inflamed eyes, discharge from the eyes and nose, difficulty breathing, and neurological signs like tremors, stiff body movements, seizure, lack of coordination, or blindness.'
