Thanks Fed for the Info

How the heck does peanut butter have samonella>???
I have tons of it in my pantry...I'll check the labels...Thanks a
bunch!!!!!

WOW!!! Just checked, two of the family size jars both had 2111 as a
beginning code on the lid...Peter Pan and Great Value...I would have
NEVER looked at that if not for this thread...Thanks a million
FedMan!!!

yw I too had a family jar and reg jar of the peter pan with those
numbers, the store refunded my money no receipt necessary, they were
very polite and did not ask any questions, no idea about the salmonella
and peanut butter my oldest ate some of it and she's fine but better
safe than sorry

I got rid of a new jar with 2111 on it

uuuugghhhh!!!!--i don't eat that stuff

I just don't understand; green onions, spinach, carrot juice, and the
list goes on. Never in my entire life can I remember ever gettng sick
from food, well, maybe crabmeat a couple of times. When we were kids,
we weren't nearly as clean as we are today, in fact, that may be the
problem. We use so much antibacterial stuff, we've sterilized our
immune systems into extinction. The Gov. wasn't even that strict about
food handling. Before recently, I'd never heard of e-coli, botulism.

Sushi just hit th nail on th head

this is why the Government,
won't tell the public all that it knows

too many people will freak out on the news

IM KINDA OF TORN RIGHT NOW ABOUT IT CAUSE I HAVE SOME BUT I WANT TO USE
IT ON MY RAT TRAP IN GARAGE IS IT ALRIGHT TO USE IT .....????

We had to toss out 3 freakin jars!!




Guess I'll have to get my peanut butter fix from Reeses cups instead
huh?!?!

Misiko, Feed it to the mice! You'll have a dead rat with salmonella!
LOL

When I first read this, I called my Daughter immediately. She only buys
Jiff Peanut Butter. Then guess who found a jar of the poison peanut
butter in his cupboard this morning. Duh, guess I should look at home
first.

Woody

LOL Woody I still have a jar gotta take back but I did take one back
and picked up a jar of jif I guess choosy mom's know best lol

I have JIF in the refrigerator and none unopened jars in the pantry.
Whew! I usually DO have some extra. My pantry is running a bit low as
all the snow here has kept us in for sometime.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I will stick my JIF brand from now on
too!

I ate half of one of those industrial sized jars before the warning came
out- I am lucky...
