Here’s a list of products with recall notices.

These chips are being recalled due to possible salmonella contamination. Consumers are encouraged to return this product to the store or throw it out. Salmonella-contaminated food may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. Short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea.
