Serious story, but the headline made me laugh...
Edited on Sat Jan-17-09 11:49 AM by jasonc
I dont know if you have heard of the salmonella outbreak that seems to be linked to Peanut Butter or not, but Minnesota Public radio had this headline on their website...

"Peanut butter probe expands; takes on new urgency"

4. It's from an Ohio-based company
King Nut is the brand - but they supply to Keebler I think

Here's a link: http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20090116-714721.html
