Frito Lay Canada is recalling two of its products, SunChips Harvest Cheddar flavoured ships and Munchies Original Snack Mix.
The recall is the direct result of a seasoning supplier’s notification that an ingredient was potentially contaminated with salmonella, a news release Monday from PepsiCo Foods Canada, which owns Frito Lay Canada said.
“Although no salmonella was found in the seasoning supplied to Frito Lay Canada, the company has decided to recall these products out of an abundance of caution,” the release said.
Symptoms of an infection caused by salmonella bacteria include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. Although in many cases it resolves itself, it can cause severe sickness and lead to hospitalization. Infants, the elderly and those with compromised immune system are especially at risk of severe illness.
All sizes of the SunChips Harvest Cheddar chips and Munchies Original Snack Mix with guaranteed freshness dates between July 16 and Aug. 13, 2024, are affected, the company said.
Specific product names and UPC codes for the affected products can be found on the SunChips website.
“Consumers should check their pantries for any of the products listed [on the site] and dispose of them,” the release said, adding Frito Lay Canada is working with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to remove all recalled products from the marketplace.
Not my favorite brand anyway.
THEY’RE TOO DRY!
you mean crunchy? lol all chips are dry.
auka they arent just dry like reggular chips they are REALLY DRY…..its not a crunch its a like a DESSERT CHIP! not for me!
These pretzels are making me thirsty
Have some mashed potatoes.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner, good they will be in the 50% reduced bin, and grab some cheaper older stock pops and my day is set. If you can digest aged walrus you can tolerate few bags a day🤑
I like buying discounted chips. I get more for my buck. Plus some have stronger flavor.
