Trader Joe's on Saturday announced, via the FDA, a voluntary recall of its Creamy Salted Valencia Peanut Butter because of a potential for salmonella contamination.
The Trader Joe's press release states, "At this time, no confirmed illnesses directly linked to this product have been reported to Trader Joe's".
However, in a separate news release, the FDA reports that the Trader Joe's peanut butter is "possibly linked" to a strain of salmonella (specifically, salmonella bredeny) that has so far sickened 29 individuals in eighteen states.
