Peanut Corporation of America’s expanded recall
Please be advised that we have initiated a voluntary recall of items that contain peanuts that were purchased from Peanut Corporation of America (“PCA”) because the products have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. This action is the result of the PCA expanded recall of January 28, 2009 for all products manufactured in their Blakely, Georgia facility since January 1, 2007.
Please note that the vast majority of our items do not contain peanuts from PCA, and many of our peanut items (Chocolate & Yogurt Peanuts, Buffalo Wing Nuts, etc.) also do not contain peanuts from PCA. We work daily on our quality control procedures, securing Certificates of Analysis and lab reports for our products, and the peanuts we received from PCA were lab tested for Salmonella and shown to be “negative – none found”. In fact, with regards to the roasted peanuts which were part of the extended recall, no illnesses have been reported to date. It is, however, our aim to make this recall process work effectively and we want to do everything we can to make sure that your business is not disrupted any more than absolutely necessary.
We are working with the FDA to ensure a smooth and swift resolution to this matter and we will have all of the recalled items and documentation on www.fda.gov the FDA website. We will also update our own website to keep you up to date on any developments regarding this recall.
