The Peanut Salmonella Recall


More than 200 peanut products have now been recalled because of Salmonella bacteria potential, U.S. health officials say.

The recalled products all contain peanut butter made at Sunland Inc., a manufacturing company in New Mexico because Salmonnella has been found in samples taken from the company's production plant.

Sunland recalled about 100 of its products in late September because they may have been contaminated with Salmonella. Today, the recall is now up to 240 products.


The recall includes all products made at Sunland's product plant since March 1, 2010, the FDA said. Of the newly recalled products, about 50 have "Best-If-Used-By" dates that have not expired, and 90 have "Best-If-Used-By" dates that have expired, but may still be in consumer's homes.

A total of 35 people from 19 states have been sickened from the outbreak, most of whom are children. They were infected with a strain of bacteria called Salmonella Bredeney.


full list of the recalled products can be found on the FDA's site.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends consumers do not eat the recalled products, and dispose of them or return them to the store.

Burglar Covered In Chocolate and Peanut Butter Arrested


A naked burglar covered in chocolate and peanut butter was arrested after workers found him inside a Kentucky supermarket.

Andrew Toothman, 22, (photo above) was arrested at  the Food World IGA market.
Toothman was charged with burglary, criminal mischief, and indecent exposure.

Toothman, (really, that's his name) who was only wearing a pair of black boots, had peanut butter and chocolate smeared all over himself.
Police said that the store’s front door was “busted out,” and that several fire extinguishers had been discharged. Peanut butter and chocolate were also spread on the market's floor and in the manager’s office.

But the strangest part of this involves NyQuil.
There was NyQuil on the floor that spelled out sorry.
