Last night while watching 24Oras, GMA 7 News Magazine, they’ve mentioned about the Salmonella Outbreak in the US that could come from peanut butter containing products. Because of this, most peanut butter products in and from the US are being recalled. Many people have been sick, even six died and it could be because of the salmonella outbreak in several states.
While here in the Philippines, some supermarkets were asked to temporarily pull out peanut butter products that are US made for precautionary measures. Most of the products recalled were cookies and candies containing peanut butter paste, not necessarily the peanut butters in jars and bottles.

According to recent news, the US Food and Drug Administration are still working to track what products carries the salmonella contaminated peanut butter and paste which was made in a manufacturing plant in Georgia
