Frito-Lay is recalling varieties of chips for Salmonella concerns.
The Salmonella risk is in the seasoning used on the Jalapeno Flavored Lay's Kettle Cooked potato chips and Jalapeno Flavored Miss Vickie's Kettle Cooked potato chips.
The recall is voluntary and stems from a seasoning supplier who recalled their jalapeno powder. The Federal Food and Drug Administration said no Salmonella was found in the seasoning supplied to Frito-Lay.
The specific recalled product information is listed below:
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 multi-pack offerings that have a “use by” date of JUN 20 or prior printed on the multi-pack package. In addition, a “guaranteed fresh” date of JUL 4 or prior is printed on the front upper panel of the individual recalled product packages inside each multi-pack offering.
