Due to the detection of high levels of chlorate in some Coca-Cola products, a wave of recalls has spread to a world-famous product. Lay's, the potato chip giant, decided to withdraw its 350-gram chip package produced for the U.S. market after an unreported dairy product was found, following the "Class I hazard" warning from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners has made a large-scale recall decision due to chlorate detected during routine inspections at its production facility in Ghent, Belgium, and has asked consumers not to consume beverages with certain batch numbers.
ANOTHER SIMILAR STEP
Following this widely publicized recall decision, now the U.S.-based potato chip giant Lay's has taken a similar step regarding a product it has launched.
UNDECLARED MILK CONTENT CRISIS AT LAY'S
According to a statement from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an undeclared milk product was found in a 350-gram bag of chips produced solely for the U.S. market by Lay's. The FDA stated that this situation poses serious dangers, especially for individuals with milk allergies or sensitivities, and could even lead to fatal allergic reactions.
CLASS ONE HAZARD IDENTIFIED
The FDA classified the Lay's chips with detected milk content as a "class one hazard," evaluating them at the highest risk level. Authorities noted that these risky chips were sold only in Washington and Oregon states. However, it was emphasized that consumers should absolutely not consume these products and should return them. FDA experts warned that individuals with milk allergies could face serious health issues that pose life-threatening risks if they consume these chips.
These consecutive recalls in the food industry raise concerns about consumer access to safe food, highlighting the need for companies to be more careful in their inspection and production processes.
