A December recall on Lay’s Potato Chips sold in two states has been escalated to the FDA’s highest risk level, but no allergic reactions have been reported.

The oversight could result in “death,” at least for those with a milk allergy or sensitivity, says the FDA. FDA initiated the recall on Dec. 13 and announced three days later that it was recalling the chips due to a potential or undeclared allergen. At present, no allergic reactions have been reported.

The Food and Drug Administration has upgraded a December recall of Classic Lays Potato Chips to Class 1, the highest priority designated by the agency.

Frito Lay issued the recall in December after it was found that there was a potential or undeclared allergen, specifically milk, in the chips.

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration has recalled a popular brand of potato chips saying the product may be high risk for some consumers.

Frito-Lay recalls Lay's Classic Crisps in the US due to undeclared milk allergen. This affects 13oz bags with a "Guaranteed Fresh" date of 11 February 2025. Consumers with milk allergies are advised not to consume the product.

The Food and Drug Administration has newly classified the December recall of some Lay’s Classic Potato Chips sold in Oregon and Washington with the designation reserved for the highest degree of health hazard.

Class I, according to the FDA, means exposure to or consumption of the product could cause "serious adverse health consequences or death."

The problem ingredient identified was "undeclared milk," which poses a risk to those with severe sensitivities or allergies.

After Frito-Lay issued a recall for some of its Lay's Classic Potato Chips last month, the the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has determined the select bags of snacks pose a serious health hazard.
