The voluntary recall was initiated because they may contain blanched roasted peanuts supplied by Sunland, Inc. to CEF. The decision was made as the result of the expanded recall of peanut butter, nut butters and peanut products, by Sunland because of potential contamination with Salmonella.
Salmonella bacteria can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps. Consumers with the above symptoms should consult their physician.
While no illnesses associated with any of these products have been reported to date, as part of our commitment to the safety and quality of our products we have decided to issue a voluntary recall.
