Not only is California known for its famous Golden Gate Bridge, its salad bowl, it's many famous people, but now for it's contaminated pistachios.This is the next problem we face ,of salmonella infected foods.The Setton co. has been implicated so far.Furthermore this nut's shell can break your tooth ,and send you to the Dentist, but also make you seriously ill.To the credit of another major food company ;they apparently serched the companies failure to separate the roasted nuts from the fresh ones at Settons nut roasting area. This may not only be found in for example; trail nuts, ice cream, but other foods containing pistachios.If more information is neaded watch the news and or contact the FDA(Food and Drug Adninistration).Please don't panic, but use common sense, when buying or using foods that may contain pistachios.

Salmonella in any food is a serious health hazzard. This peanut butter ,and related foods ourbreak containing peanut butter should never have occured. Furthermore ,this should never happen, along with other organisms ;which have, and could contaminate other foods, for example ecoli,hepatitis,MRSA (methacillin resistant staph)and other food born illinesses caused by other microbes With good quality control, testing of batches of all foods on a regular bases ,this could ,and other food born contaminations with pathogens, could and should be contained. The FDA food and drug administration can't possibly check all food shources , with the no. of personnel they have. It is often the companys quality control to have diligent and well qualified personel,to check these food products. Please try not to cut corners because lives are at stake and whole familes may be devastated. Please reavaluate your methodolities to prevent this or other food borne infecrticions diseases.

Went to IHOP yesterday and my girlfriend and I each got the all you can eat pancakes. She always eats her's with peanut butter.

When she asked the waitress for peanut butter she was told that they couldn't give anyone peanut butter because the U.S. recalled all peanut butter.

I want my PB&J dang it!
