Lay’s & Miss Vickie’s Jalapeño Chips Recall
Have you purchased Lay’s Jalapeño Kettle Cooked Chips and/or Miss Vickie’s Jalapeño Flavored Kettle Cooked Potato Chips recently? If so, you may be interested to know that Lay’s just announced a voluntary recall of this product due to a possible Salmonella contamination found in the Jalapeño seasoning used on the chips.
To find out if the Jalapeño chips that you purchased are included in this recall, head here and fill out the form. If you did indeed purchase affected products, you will receive a replacement coupon in approximately 6 weeks.
Is it just me or do recalls like this seem to be happening more and more! Or is it just better testing is allowing them to find more issues than before?
Check out the movie food.inc, it is sn eye opener. And, yes, I agree these sre happening more often.
I had a bag of the Lay’s Kettle Cooked jalapeno flavor, so I filled the form out. Immediately received an email that said my info had gone to processing and they would contact me in a few days if they had questions. If they had no questions, I could expect to receive a coupon for a free bag in the mail within 6 weeks or so I think. I included the printed code under the “guaranteed fresh” date even though they didn’t ask for it just to be sure.
Dame i just ate on yesterday.
We’ve ordered 4 of the 30 pack multipacks from amazon and received 4 separate emails from amazon for each order about the recall.
Same here.
I just ate these yesterday! Thanks for the heads up!
You’re welcome!
Winco makes a yummy cheaper version of this same chip. Picked some up yesterday.
I don’t know if there are other locations of this store, but I just discovered it. OMG!!!! It is called Bargain Hunt. I got 3 dresses, 3 skirts, 3 bags of ghiradelli chocolate covered coconut snack for less than $60. They are a closeout store, so other stores send their stuff there and they sell them at ridiculous prices. All new items. Just had to share.
We buy these a lot! I don’t have any receipts but it said if you’re claiming less than 5 no proof is needed. Just FYI. Thanks for finding and sharing this hip team!
You’re so welcome Sarah!
One time I ate them and took out a HUGE green looking blob. It looked like a huge ball like a jalapeño but it was hard. So gross. I emailed them with pictures and they send me like 4 coupons.
Oh bummer! Thanks for sharing your experience Kate! Glad to hear they sent you coupons!
We just ate a whole bag of these this weekend. And my husband had a small bag of the Vickie’s at Tropical Smoothie the other night. (We love anything jalapeno!) Sounds like they recalled them as just a pre-caution, so I am not too worried about it, but still stresses me out a bit. Thanks for always posting this stuff! We really appreciate it!
You’re welcome!
So are they safe to buy now ? Or when will they be safe to eat.
I believe those that are available to purchase now are not included in the recall.
Precaution is a good thing. Not about those shredded golf balls in the Harris Teeter hash browns…..that’s a whole different story.
Just tried to buy them at Target this morning and the register won’t let you purchase.
I wanted to let you all know… I did this a month ago, and got my replacement coupons in the mail today! Free products up to $4.29 each!! Woohoo!
