Old Dutch Foods Inc. of St. Paul, MN is voluntarily recalling a limited number of Flavored Potato Chip and Tortilla Chip products that were made with milk ingredients supplied by one of its’ secondary seasoning component suppliers  Valley Milk Products LLC, due to the potential risk of Salmonella contamination.

Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the blood stream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.

Product was distributed nationwide through grocery and other retail stores.

The recall includes the following seasoned Potato Chip and Tortilla Chip products and their respective product code dates (which is most easily identified on the front of the package):

Although no lab tests have confirmed the presence of Salmonella in these products and no illnesses have been reported, we are voluntarily issuing the immediate recall of these products in conjunction with FDA guidance with an abundance of caution and with adherence to strict quality standards for all Old Dutch Foods products.

Customers and consumers who have purchased the recalled product as identified in the affected product list should dispose of it immediately and may contact Old Dutch Foods Consumer Care toll free at 1-877-228-2273 between the hours of 9:00am and 5:00pm Central Standard Time.
