thank you

It's also funny to see all the parent companies and what brands they own. Everything is all inbred now.

I'm still not going to take any chances. Plus, my jar of store-brand peanut butter + some generic Ritz crackers is WAY cheaper than any kind of store-bought PB treat.

@summerbee: Are you able to identify the maker of your generic peanut butter?

I was happy to see Lance crackers are still safe. As horrible as they are for you, they're nummy!

Yay! Reeses PB cups are still okay!

Yay, Lance sandwich crackers are still okay!

@Oranges w/ Cheese: I should have found your post first before I commented. I have a big double box of their toasty peanut butter sandwich crackers, thank you Costco!

The site layout over there is broken in Chrome, so probably also broken for every Mac user that hasn't installed Firefox.

You'd think with such a simple layout, it would be working with no problems everywhere *sighs*

Wait wait wait, the company that provided us with salmonella-laced products, who probably could never know how far their infectious product has spread suddenly now knows which products -aren't- salmonella tainted?

I could be mistaken... do I have that correct?

@Branan:

It appears to work fine in Safari. Seems like it is just Google Chrome that it is broken in.

Also test it in Opera, no issues there.

THE LEAVITT CORPORATION, EVERETT, MA
Product: Makers of Teddie Natural Peanut Butter

phew, i'm safe

@failurate: Yes, and I don't it's not affected. I guess what I meant is this: I'm not going to take chances on ready-to-eat products with industrial/food service PB.

Jif for the win, and I'm not even a "Choosy Mom".

@EdaRufus: Well if they know which companies don't buy from this particular distributor, that could help make the list. I found a press release from Lance crackers that because they make their own peanut butter rather than buy it from a distributor, and because they were re-inspected by the state of NC when this news story broke, they were found to be clean.

This is probably my paranoid law student-self talking, but you guys are risking a lot by making a statement saying "This doesn't have slamonella". I'd hate to see Consumerist get shut down because someone bought a product you said was safe and turned out to be tainted. Just saying.

Seeing that Reese's pb cup made my day! Yay. One of my favorite food "groups" is safe. 8)

Also, I didn't see it on the "safe list," but I went to the web site of my favorite natural (nonsweetened) peanut butter, Teddie, and they have a statement saying theirs is safe as well. (whew again)

@Crim Law Geek: It's not like they compiled it themselves. They're providing a link to American Peanut Council's list of salmonella free products which have been confirmed by each company. Far bigger fish I'd say.

Thank god. I've got 3 pounds of Reese's sitting in my freezer. There's no way I'd want to let those go to waste!

I take it my Girl Scout cookies I just bought are safe.

Hmmm...one thing I didn't see on there was Wal-Mart Brand peanut butter. Didn't even see a parent company for them. Can anyone shed some light on if the walmart brand is safe or not?

in other news, there is an American Peanut Council.

@D0rk:

Party at D0rk's house. :)

I ate a whole bag of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup mini's last week. They were so delicious I didn't seem to care. At work people continued to eat their Peanut butter M&M's and joked they may die in a week.

Seems some people just can't give up on peanut butter. *chuckle*

I saw some comments about Lance sandwich crackers. That is correct Lance is NOT part of the peanut butter recall. I am working with Lance to get the message out to consumers that their products are safe. You can view the official statement on YouTube at
