Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to milk; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
Reason Bags of Trader Joe's Organic Round Tortilla Chips were found to contain small amounts of Trader Joes Spicy Cheese Crunchies which includes the allergens of milk and soy which are not declared on the label.
