A food company issued a voluntary recall over an apparent mix-up over listing the correct number of potential allergens.

Utz Quality Foods, LLC, has issued a voluntary recall of its 2.75 oz. Wavy Original Potato Chips after realizing that it had not declared a milk allergen.

The company, through a recall listed on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration website, said “approximately 1,200 single-serve bags contained” chips flavored with seasoning were affected.

There have been no illnesses reported in connection with the incident. The products “were distributed to retail outlets only in New York State and primarily within New York City.” People who have an allergy to milk should avoid eating the products.

Newsweek approached Utz Quality Foods via email out of hours for comment on Saturday.

This is a developing story.
