Recall issued for Miss Vickie's potato chip flavor in Texas The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued a recall for 8-ounce bags of Miss Vickie’s Spicy Dill Pickle flavored potato chips in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. The recall stems from the potential presence of jalapeño-flavored chips, which contain "undeclared milk," posing a risk to individuals with milk allergies. The FDA warned that this could lead to serious or life-threatening reactions. The affected products were distributed to retailers as early as January 15, 2026. Consumers are advised to check for specific identifiers on the packaging: a "Guaranteed fresh" date of April 21, 2026, and manufacturing codes 38U301414 or 48U101514. The UPC code on the back of the bag is 0 28400 761772. No allergic reactions have been reported to the FDA, but consumers are urged to contact the agency at 1-877-984-2543 or visit Miss Vickie’s website if they suspect they have purchased the product. Miss Vickie’s, a Canadian brand founded by Vickie and Bill Kerr in 1987 at their Ontario potato farm, was acquired by Frito-Lay in 1993. The brand is now widely available in the U.S., including at Jimmy John’s locations, and offers a range of flavors such as sour cream, sea salt, jalapeño, and honey mustard. The Spicy Dill Pickle flavor gained popularity in 2025, partly driven by social media trends, including TikTok. Food writers noted that the dill pickle flavor combines sour notes with herbs, garlic, salt, and a touch of sugar or spice, making it a popular choice among consumers.#frito_lay #miss_vickie_s #us_food_and_drug_administration #tiktok #jimmy_john_s
Miss Vickie’s pickle chips containing undeclared milk recalled in 6 states Frito-Lay has issued a voluntary recall for Miss Vickie’s Spicy Dill Pickle Potato Chips sold in six U.S. states due to the presence of undeclared milk, which could pose a risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions. The recall was announced on Wednesday following a consumer report to the company. The affected product is an 8-ounce bag of chips, including the jalapeño-flavored variant, and is linked to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration’s warning about potential health hazards. The recall applies to products sold in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas as early as January 15. Frito-Lay emphasized that the chips are safe for consumption unless a consumer has a dairy allergy or sensitivity to milk. The company urged individuals who purchased the recalled items to contact them directly for further instructions. The specific products can be identified by a "Guaranteed Fresh" date of April 21, manufacturing codes 38U301414 or 48U101514 on the front of the bag, and a UPC number of 0 28400 76177 2 on the back. The recall highlights the importance of ingredient transparency, particularly for individuals with food allergies, and underscores the role of regulatory agencies in ensuring product safety. Frito-Lay’s decision to initiate the recall voluntarily reflects the company’s responsibility to address potential risks promptly. While no other Miss Vickie’s products were affected, the incident serves as a reminder of the challenges in maintaining allergen-free labeling in processed foods. Consumers are advised to check their pantry for the recalled items and contact the company for details on returns or replacements.#miss_vickie #frito_lay #us_food_drug_administration #arizona #texas
