World News (10/1, story 4, 2:00, Sawyer) reported, "And, now, the
latest on the major recall of a staple in American kitchens, peanut butter. The
recall is growing. The Centers for Disease Control has now confirmed that at
least 30 people in 19 states were all sickened by salmonella, most of them
children."
The AP (10/2, Jalonick) adds that the CDC linked
the salmonella illnesses to Trader Joe's Creamy Salted Valencia Peanut Butter.
But thus far, "no other foods have been linked to the illnesses."
Still, New Mexico-based Sunland Inc. recalled 101 products because they were
"manufactured on the same equipment as the Trader Joe's peanut butter";
and now, "several retailers have issued additional recalls" for
product that were "made with Sunland ingredients." In addition to
Trader Joe's, the recall now includes "some nut butters and nut products
sold at Whole Foods Market, Target, Safeway, Fresh & Easy, Giant Food,
Harry and David, Sprouts, Heinen's, Stop & Shop Supermarket Company"
and several other stores that "used Sunland ingredients in items they
prepared and packaged themselves."
