| We had to throw out packs of those Austin crackers too. And our brand new jar of peanut butter is sitting unopened until they are more sure that is safe too - now they just say there is no evidence that it is unsafe . . . Plus I have peanut butter and chocolate chip granola bars - those are going on hold, or possibly in the trash too. And we all love peanut butter . . . . this is a huge bummer! |

It's the peanut butter that was sold in bulk to schools and manufactureres that was tainted. So, we are not eating ANYTHING peanut butter right now. |

| Don't throw them away... companies are required to give you your money back or exchange the product in the event of a recall... |

They said on the news last night that the jar peanut butter is safe, but I personally am not trusting ANY peanut butter or peanut butter products right now. The news said to avoid peanut butter crackers and cookies, and the peanut butter in the school has been recalled. But, I am waiting to see if they find the source before I trust anything. Last I heard, 12 people died and 500+ have gotten sick from it. |

Meijer Inc. is recalling two types of crackers and two varieties of ice cream due to possible salmonella contamination. Meijer brand Cheese and Peanut Butter and Toasty Peanut Butter sandwich crackers and Peanut Butter and Jelly and Peanut Butter Cup ice cream are being recalled. The Grand Rapids-based grocer and retailer said in a news release Monday that the makers of the products have announced possible contamination. The products are sold in Meijer stores and gas stations in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky. Officials say most peanut butter sold in jars at supermarkets appears to be safe. On Sunday, McKee Foods Corp. of Collegedale, Tenn., voluntarily recalled Little Debbie snacks -- Little Debbie peanut butter toasty crackers and Little Debbie peanut butter cheese crackers. The company said no other Little Debbie products are involved in the recall. McKee said it acted because the crackers have the potential to be contaminated. Federal health officials have urged people to avoid eating cookies, cakes, ice cream and other foods that contain peanut butter until more is known about a deadly outbreak of salmonella contamination. |
