RFK Jr insists 'food is medicine' as he pushes for toxin removal from food industry

Fox News senior medical analyst Dr. Marc Siegel joined 'The Faulkner Focus' to discuss the HHS secretary's push to remove toxins from food as he urges companies to be transparent about ingredients. 

Frito-Lay is voluntarily recalling a limited number of Tostitos tortilla chips that could contain an undeclared milk allergen, the company announced. 

The recall affects fewer than 1,300 bags of 13-ounce Tostitos Cantina Traditional Yellow Corn tortilla chips sold in 13 states.

Frito-Lay said in a news release on Wednesday that the chips are "being recalled as they could include nacho cheese tortilla chips and therefore may contain an undeclared milk allergen."

"Those with an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the recalled product," Frito-Lay said.

The bags of chips were sold in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia.
