Frito-Lay has issued a recall on a limited number of its 13-ounce bags of Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips due to concern of potential exposure to an allergen.

Frito-Lay has recalled a limited number of its corn tortilla chips due to concern of potential exposure to milk, which is an allergen.

The company, a division of PepsiCo, said in a press release Wednesday that it had recalled certain 13-ounce bags of Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips due to concern that the products may contain nacho cheese tortilla chips — and therefore “undeclared milk.”

The products in question were distributed to a variety of retailers, including grocery stores, convenience stores and drug stores, the company said. The chips were also distributed via e-commerce distributers to the following 13 states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia.

If you’re wondering whether your recent purchase of Frito-Lay chips are a part of the recall, you should carefully read the product information on the package. The chips included in the recall have the following Universal Product Code (UPC): 28400 52848. The products in question also must contain a “Guaranteed Fresh Date of 20 May 2025” and specific manufacturing codes that can be found here.

The company said that the now-recalled chips would have been available to purchase as early as March 7 and that the recall includes fewer than 1,300 bags.

Frito-Lay said in the release that the company had not received reports of allergic reactions and that no other Tostitos products were included in the recall.

Consumers with an allergy or sensitivity to milk are advised to not consume the product, and to discard it immediately. If you have the recalled product in your possession, you can contact Frito-Lay online here or by phone at 1-800-352-4477.

And if you’re concerned that you’ve consumed this recalled product, here’s what you should know about milk allergies.

A milk allergy can cause a wide range of symptoms.

A milk allergy is a relatively common food allergy — especially in children under 16, according to the Cleveland Clinic, which states that the allergy occurs when someone’s immune system overreacts to one or more of the proteins in milk that’s been ingested.

The severity of the symptoms can vary depending on the person. Some people may experience abdominal pain, diarrhea, itching, hives or nausea and/or vomiting.

More severe symptoms may include chest tightness, shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing, drop in blood pressure or anaphylaxis — a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction in which someone has trouble breathing.

The Mayo Clinic states that a milk allergy can be diagnosed by several types of tests and methods, including a skin prick test, a blood test or an elimination diet method — in which a health care provider may recommend that you eliminate milk from your diet before adding it back in to see if it causes a reaction.
