FDA Issues Class I Recall for Tostitos

FDA Issues Class I Recall for Tostitos Frito-Lay has announced a voluntary recall of select bags of its Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips, following concerns over potential contamination with nacho cheese-flavored chips, which could pose a serious risk to individuals with milk allergies.
