Good morning!
As you may have heard, a Salmonella investigation is underway, and a number of products containing peanut butter or peanut paste have been withdrawn, due to possible
contamination.  You can find a complete list of the products under the FDA recall information link with this notice from the Texas Department of State Health Services. 
Because six case of Salmonella illness have been reported in Texas, I thought it was important to forward this health department notice, so you can check your pantries
for potentially adulterated products.  A link to Centers for Disease Control (CDC) also appears below, if you have questions regarding the incident.
