Justin’s is expanding its September recall of peanut butter products that were made with Sunland Inc. ingredients because they may be contaminated with Salmonella bacteria. Justin’s was notified by its contract manufacturer, Fresca Foods, that Sunland peanuts were used in the production of some peanut butter products in the past, so the recall is being expanded.
You can see the long list of products, UPC numbers, package sizes, and best by dates at the FDA web site. The products being recalled are peanut butter, honey peanut butter, squeeze packs, chocolate peanut butter, milk chocolate peanut butter, and dark chocolate peanut butter. They were distributed nationally to many supermarket chains and were available for purchase on the internet from 3/23/10 to 9/26/12.
If you have purchased any of these products, return them to the store for a full refund. For questions, call the company at 303-449-9559 Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm MT.
