Frito-Lay Recalls Select Kettle Cooked Chips Over Potential Salmonella Poisoning
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Frito-Lay has announced the recall of select Jalapeño Flavored Lay's Kettle Cooked potato chips and Jalapeño Flavored Miss Vickie's Kettle Cooked potato chips due to the potential presence of Salmonella in the seasoning.
The recall is reportedly the result of a supplier's recall of a seasoning blend which includes jalapeño powder that could contain Salmonella. Although no Salmonella was found in the seasoning supplied to Frito-Lay, the company decided to recall these products out of an abundance of caution.
