Plain-English summary
Frito-Lay, Inc. is recalling 1/2 oz. bags of Smartfood Delight Sea Salt Flavored popcorn packaged in two variety pack offerings. The recall involves 19,565 sacks of the 16 count Crunch & Pop Mix Variety Pack Sack. The product was distributed in Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
The recall is being conducted because the popcorn bags have the potential to contain cheese-flavored chips, which results in undeclared milk. This poses a risk to consumers with milk allergies.
Consumers should check their pantries for the affected variety packs. The affected products have use-by dates of 18 DEC 2018 or 1 JAN 2019 and an 11-digit manufacturing code that includes the letter combination AM in the second and third position (example: xAMxxxxxxxx).
