Details of the Peter Pan Peanut Butter Recall

Reacting to a nationwide salmonella outbreak, the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned consumers to discard jars of Peter Pan peanut butter and generic Great Value peanut butter (distributed at Wal-mart stores nationwide). The move is in response to the discovery of the Salmonella Tennessee bacteria in peanut butter believed to be implicated in salmonella cases in more than 39 states since August 2006. ConAgra, which manufactures Peter Pan and Great Value peanut butter, issued a voluntary Peter Pan peanut butter recall, warning consumers not to consumer peanut butter from jars with the serial number "2111" on their lids.
