A previous FDA recall on certain Lay's potato chip products has now been updated to the category with the highest risk for consumers. What to know

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration has recalled a popular brand of potato chips saying the product may be high risk for some consumers.

Frito-Lay is recalling bags of Lay’s Classic Potato Chips after the FDA increased the risk level of the product to its highest level of risk classification.

Lay’s voluntary recall from December has been increased to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s highest risk level classification. On Dec. 13, Frito-Lay recalled more than 6,000 bags of 13 oz. Lay’s Classic Potato Chips due to “undeclared milk.” The affected chips were sold in Oregon and Washington.

A December recall on Lay’s Potato Chips sold in two states has been escalated to the FDA’s highest risk level, but no allergic reactions have been reported.

After Frito-Lay issued a recall for some of its Lay's Classic Potato Chips last month, the the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has determined the select bags of snacks pose a serious health hazard.

Frito Lay issued the recall in December after it was found that there was a potential or undeclared allergen, specifically milk, in the chips.
