Are You a Peanut ****** Fan? (There's Bad News)

Question

Thinking of making yourself a PB & J sandwich today? You might want to check your peanut ****** jar first.

Unilever has recalled two brands of its reduced-fat Skippy peanut ****** -- Skippy Reduced Fat Creamy Peanut ****** Spread and Skippy Reduced Fat Super Chunk Peanut ****** Spread -- which may be contaminated with salmonella bacteria.

The products, which come in 16.3-ounce plastic jars, were distributed in 16 states: Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.

According to WebMD, symptoms of salmonella infection include fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Small ********, frail and elderly people, and people with weakened immune systems are especially at risk.

UPC codes for the recalled products, located on the side of the label below the bar code, are 048001006812 and 048001006782. Stamped on the jar lid, the recalled products carry these best-if-used-by dates:

MAY1612LR1
MAY1712LR1
MAY1812LR1
MAY1912LR1
MAY2012LR1
MAY2112LR1

When I was a little kid (about 5), my Dad would eat peanuts while watching TV. I would ask him for some and he would give me about three. In no time, they would be gone and I would ask for more. He quite often refused.

One day, my Mom bought my Dad a huge bag of Spanish peanuts. Dad ate a handful and went to bed. I thought to myself, "For all the times he didn't give me any, I am going to make up for it." I ate the whole bag in one sitting. Needless to say, I hugged and prayed to the porcilin Budda until I though my guts were coming out. Ever since that day I can't stand even the smell of peanuts. It's funny how this stuff sticks with you even after 50 years, but it does!

Answer 31

you're welcome... for me the hotter the better..and the sweet apples complement the horseradish.

Answer 32

At least a jar a week. Creamy! But I do not buy the national brands. Store brands are cheaper and usually have les sugar. And I never buy the reduced fat version of anything.

Answer 33

Jif Creamy Peanut ****** is all I ever remember eating.

"Choosy Moms Choose Jif"

There's a reason for that, just ask my mom or check out these recalls.

Answer 34

I luv peanut ****** anything but not peanuts.

Don't usually buy that brand. Try cooking a can of cream of mushroom or celery soup and adding a good dolop of peanut ******... it's good and easy!

Answer 36

Really? Will have to remember that. Thanks! I have a classmate that put apple ****** on his hot dogs!!

Answer 37

peanut ****** on apple slices is good too but I prefer horseradish on my apple slices. Applebutter on hot dogs? welll..... could be okay. Give me tartar sauce for fries.

Answer 38

Really? Horseradish? WOW! I WILL have to try that! Thank you....

Answer 39
