Heads up, potato chip lovers! Utz Quality Foods, LLC., has announced a voluntary recall of 88 cases of Utz® 2.75 oz. Wavy Original Potato Chips. The recall is due to an undeclared milk allergen, posing a potential risk to those with milk allergies or severe sensitivities.
Utz initiated the recall after discovering that approximately 1200 single-serve bags contained Utz® Wavy Original Potato Chips flavored with seasoning instead of the plain variety. Individuals with a milk allergy may experience allergic reactions if they consume these mislabeled products.
The affected items were distributed exclusively to retail outlets within New York State, primarily in New York City. Fortunately, as of now, no illnesses associated with this voluntary recall have been reported.
