Frito-Lay is recalling various flavors of their popular Lay’s potato chips after a significant health risk has been identified. The recall now includes 10-ounce bags of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips, with production codes that range from July 10, 2023, to September 29, 2023. Consumers are advised to check the packaging and return any affected products to the place of purchase for a full refund. This recall has been heightened to the FDA’s highest risk category due to the potential presence of foreign materials, which raises serious safety concerns. The flavors affected by this recall include Original, Barbecue, Sour Cream & Onion, and Cheddar & Sour Cream. Frito-Lay stated in an official press release, “The safety of our consumers is our top priority and we are committed to doing everything we can to ensure that our products are safe.” This expanded recall comes just days before the Super Bowl, a time when chip consumption peaks in many households across the nation, potentially affecting millions of consumers. Retailers nationwide have been notified to remove the affected snacks from shelves as public health authorities urge consumers to stay vigilant. As of now, there have been no reports of illness or injury related to this issue, but the company is taking precautionary measures in light of the recent findings.
