A packaging error means that bags of Walkers salt and vinegar crisps (25g) within Walkers multipacks have been labelled incorrectly as containing milk lactose and dried milk. This is inconsistent with the outer packaging of the multipacks, which correctly does not include milk in the ingredients list. Walkers has recently reformulated its salt and vinegar crisps and these are now free from milk lactose and dried milk. Walkers has reassured allergic or intolerant customers that there are no dairy ingredients in bags of salt and vinegar crisps with ‘best before’ dates after 29 October 2011. No other Walkers’ products are known to be affected.
