On Friday, the firm behind the famous brand launched a voluntary recall of the peanut butter, advising people to discard any jars they may have at home.
A faulty roof at one of the company’s factories may have caused salmonella infection in certain jars, prompting the recall. The firm did not specify how many jars were implicated in the recall or how much merchandise was involved overall.
The FDA stated that no infections have been recorded as a consequence of this, but asked anybody who has purchased jars to dispose of them promptly.
