TIL potato chips can carry salmonella.
TIL potato chips have milk products on them.
IKR!?!?!?
i feel like you shouldn't use a stock photo in cases like this because none of those products are in this recall
The article now has an updated photo - I guess they had to send someone to the store to get a photo of these specific chips, or get permission from the maker to use the maker's stock photo or something?
The photo came straight from the article, so I don't think OP has any control over that. But I completely agree with you that it is misleading by the publisher/newspaper.
Also not cool to skip the part of the article listing the exact products being recalled when summarizing the article. I've put that info in another comment already.
If you read the article, the brand in the photo is called Dirty - which is one of the brands from Utz that's impacted by this recall.
There are two photos, the one at the top of the article now with Dirty chips, and the one that lemmy grabbed with Pepsico brands of chips like Lays and Doritos with the Guardian logo on it, so it's coming from the Guardian somehow.
Neither photo shows Zapp's brand chips.
Your argument is that the parent company owns both brands... So you would be fine with the photo showing bottles of Pepsi or packs of Jacks Links jerky if the article was exclusively about Lay's potato chips? Those are all owned by Pepsico of course, so it's the same right?
But, the point is those aren’t Utz brand chips in the photo that’s in this post. OP probably just added a link and Lemmy grabbed the image from the site. The site either changed the photo or is misconfigured to deliver the wrong photo.
Yes it is Utz brand - specifically Dirty brand chips, which is one of the brands affected by the recall.
Utz branded chips aren't affected, but some of their sub brands, such as Dirty, are.
recall of popular brands made by Utz (Emphasis mine)
"Dirty" is one of those affected brands, the photo shows a bag of Dirty brand chips.
I believe they were talking about this photo that shows up on Lemmy:

Yes that's right. And I read the article
Manufacturer Utz issued a voluntary recall in May for varieties of its Zapp’s and Dirty potato chips products, citing the possible presence of salmonella in dry milk powder sourced from a third party used to make a seasoning ingredient.
Umm, a brand called Dirty... Haha
The affected products are: Zapp’s Brand Bayou Blackened Ranch Potato Chips (1.5oz), Zapp’s Brand Bayou Blackened Ranch Potato Chips (2.5oz), Zapp’s Brand Bayou Blackened Ranch Potato Chips (8oz), Dirty Brand Salt and Vinegar Potato Chips (2oz), Zapp’s Brand Salt and Vinegar Potato Chips (1.5oz), Dirty Brand Maui Onion Potato Chip (2oz), Zapp’s Brand Big Cheezy Potato Chip (2.5oz), Zapp’s Brand Big Cheezy Potato Chip (8oz), and Dirty Brand Sour Cream and Onion Potato Chips (2oz).
Just in time for everyone's July 4th cookout!
How long do they think bags of chips last in a typical house?
My house? Days to years. Depends on where I stuck them and if I remember they exist.
Normal house? A week and a half tops.
Bummer, Zapp’s are awesome.
