In-depth Analysis of the Frito-Lay Tostitos Recall due to an Undeclared Milk Allergen, its Potential Health Risks, and Legal Recourse for Consumers Affected by this Unlabeled Ingredient.
June 25, 2023 – The snack giant, Frito-Lay, has instigated a voluntary recall of their Tostitos Avocado Salsa Jar Dip due to the potential presence of an unlisted milk allergen, as reported by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Individuals with an allergy or significant sensitivity to milk could experience a severe or potentially fatal allergic reaction if they consume the dip, warns the FDA’s statement.
While the front label of the salsa dip jar is accurate, the side that provides its nutritional information fails to mention the potential allergen.
The recall is targeting the 15-ounce jars of Tostitos Avocado Salsa Dip, sold both in stores and online nationwide, and possibly purchased from April 5, 2023, onwards as per the FDA.
It’s essential to note that this recall by Frito-Lay does not affect any other Tostitos products.
The FDA’s statement urged, “If consumers have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk, they should avoid consuming the product and dispose of it immediately.”
In a similar vein, last month Frito-Lay initiated a dairy-related voluntary recall of certain packages of its Lay’s Classic Potato Chips, the FDA reported.
This previous recall, triggered by a consumer complaint that led to an investigation, concerned packaging that may have inadvertently contained undeclared milk ingredients from sour cream and onion chips, as mentioned in a news release.
