[ARCHIVED] FDA and CDC Still Issuing Peanut-Butter Warnings

Posted 3/12/2009

According to CDC, illnesses are still being reported among people who have eaten recalled peanut-derived products contaminated with Salmonella bacteria. The
Agency is concerned that illnesses will continue to occur if people eat these peanut products that may still be on their shelves at home.

Both the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials urge consumers to check the FDA’s Web resource on the peanut-derived product recall or call CDC’s 24-hour information hotline at 1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636) before eating any peanut-derived products. Product recalls also include some pet food products made by PCA.
