United StatesSaratoga Potato Chips LLC has issued a recall for specific batches of their J. HIGGS brand loaded bacon and cheddar potato chips due to potential undeclared soy allergens, according to a warning from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These chips were distributed to Save A Lot stores in five states, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, and Maryland, and have specific UPC codes and best-by dates. The FDA emphasized that individuals with soy allergies could face serious or life-threatening reactions if they consume the product. No injuries or illnesses have been reported yet. This recall follows several other food recalls this year related to contamination and allergen issues. Experts note that larger companies are more likely to have recalls detected due to the high volume of products distributed, making it easier to identify patterns of illness.
