Peanut Butter Recalled due to Salmonella

In case you haven’t heard, the CDC has linked a salmonella outbreak to Peter Pan peanut butter as well as Wal-Mart’s Great Value peanut butter — both of which are produced by ConAgra Foods, Inc. Thus far, nearly 300 people nationwide. While ConAgra claims innocence, and states that all of their tests have been negative, they’ve issued a recall of the potentially tainted peanut butter and have started offering refunds.

Fortunately, we don’t have any of this stuff around the house, but… If you do, you need to check the product code on the lid. If it starts with 2111, then you should throw it out.

In order to get a refund, send the lid along with your name and address to:

ConAgra Foods
P.O. Box 57078
Irvine, CA 92619-7078

Correction… ConAgra has changed the address from the one originally reported by the AP:

ConAgra Foods
P.O. Box 3768
Omaha, NE 68103

For more information, call 866-344-6970.
