A chain and Kelloggs are added to the mix. In short, if you have ANY peanut butter products, its better not to use them right now

I've received so many company recalls of their peanut butter products....everyone who uses peanut butter in their foods to sell to consumers is recalling product. That being said...I simply cannot post all the recall notices I'm receiving becuase of this problem. I will no longer post recall notices of peanut butter products from this salmonella scare.

Needless to say, like the poster before me...when in doubt, don't eat it or buy it, if it contains peanut butter. The exception would be eating peanut butter straight from the jar (i.e. Jif, Peter Pan, Skippy, etc.).

This is scary, my kids LOVE peanut butter, so instead of buying any pre packaged treats, I've been using crackers and a jar of peanut butter or a good old fashion PB&J.

We had 2 2.5lb jars of Skippy that we received directly from the skippy factory. We have 1 left and so far everyone is fine. I think after this jar is gone, we are going to cool it on PB for awhile.
