• Certain bags of Tostitos chips are being recalled over concerns of “life-threatening” allergic reactions.
• The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shared information on the exact product affected by the recall.
• Here is how to tell if your chips are included in the recall and what to do.

The latest food recall affects snack cabinets across several states. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a recall last week for Frito-Lay’s popular Tostitos tortilla chips. While the recall has yet to be categorized, the FDA describes the case as potentially “serious or life-threatening” for certain individuals.

Approximately 1,000 bags of Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips are affected by the recall as they may contain milk, an undeclared allergen. The affected bags may include a variety of nacho cheese tortilla chips, which are made with milk.

According to the FDA, “those with an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk” should not consume the recalled product. However, in a media statement from Frito-Lay, the manufacturer confirmed that the product “is safe to consume” if the consumer does not have a dairy allergy or sensitivity. “No allergic reactions related to this matter have been reported to date,” the FDA confirmed, adding that no other Tostitos products are affected by the recall.

The specific products included in the recall are 13 oz. bags of Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips distributed in 13 states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. Bags were available for purchase as early as March 7, 2025, from grocery stores, convenience stores, drug stores, and e-commerce distributors.

Impacted products will have a UPC of 28400 or 52848, a “guaranteed fresh” date of 20 May 2025, and have one of the following manufacturing codes (where “XX” is any number from 30 up to 55):

• 471106504; 18 13:XX
• 471106505; 85 13:XX
• 471106506; 85 13:XX
• 471106507; 85 13:XX

Anyone in possession of the product who also has an allergy or sensitivity to milk should not consume it and discard it immediately, per the FDA.
