A peanut butter recall has been issued for 76 products, including peanut butter and almond butter under Trader Joe's store brand, Archer Farms, Sunland and other brands.
Recently 29 salmonella cases have been reported in 18 states, with four hospitalized and no deaths. Half of these cases occurred among children under 7. An investigation by the Center for Disease Control suspect that these salmonella poisoning resulted from peanut butter sold at Trader Joe's stores. Of 14 people interviewed, 12 reported that they ate Trader Joe's Creamy Salted Valencia Peanut Butter before they got sick.
Sunland Inc., the supplier of Trader Joe's Creamy Salted Valencia Peanut Butter, has issued a recall on 76 of its peanut butters and almond butters produced between May 1 and September 24. Sunland Inc. is recalling these products because they were manufactured with the same equipment as the Trader Joe's product.
Trader Joe's issued a statement saying that they are acting "out of an abundance of caution" and that the specific peanut butter product should not be eaten.
Salmonella poisoning can cause serious and possibly fatal infections, particularly in young children and the elderly. Salmonella infection symptoms include fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea for 12 to 72 hours after eating the contaminated food. Most people recover after four to seven days, even without treatment.
According to WebMD, "Some people develop severe diarrhea and need hospital care. Rarely, salmonella bacteria escape the gut and enter the blood, where they spread to other parts of the body. Such infections can be fatal if not treated promptly with antibiotics."
