Three more companies have announced derivative recalls for products made with Sunland peanuts. The products are recalled because they may be contaminated with Salmonella bacteria. Sunland Inc. made Trader Joe’s Valencia peanut butter, which has been recalled and linked to a Salmonella Bredeney outbreak that has sickened at least 35 people in 19 states. No confirmed illnesses have been reported in connection with the consumption of these products.
