— January 6, 2019

Last week, ALDI, in cooperation with Olde York Potato Chips, voluntarily recalled “96 cases of Clancy’s Wavy Potato Chips from limited stores” after the company discovered the “potential presence of milk resulting from product mislabeling.”


If you’re a fan of potato chips and shopping at ALDI, this latest recall notice is for you. Last week, ALDI, in cooperation with Olde York Potato Chips, voluntarily recalled “96 cases of Clancy’s Wavy Potato Chips from limited stores” after the company discovered the “potential presence of milk resulting from product mislabeling.” Having undeclared allergens present in products such as potato chips is a big deal because it may result in customers with dairy allergies experiencing allergic reactions.
