FDA confirms salmonella in Kellogg peanut butter snack

January 20, 2009

The Food and Drug Administration said Monday that salmonella was found in a package of peanut butter sandwich crackers made by Kellogg (K).

 

Kellogg (K) said Monday that a previously recalled peanut butter-sandwich cracker tested positive for salmonella as a rapidly growing national recall widened to include more companies’ peanut snacks because of potential contamination.

 

Kellogg’s Austin Quality Foods Toasty Crackers with Peanut Butter is the first product sold to consumers that’s known to have tested positive for the salmonella strain initially linked only to peanut butter sold to institutions, such as nursing homes.

 

The outbreak has led to 474 reported illnesses and may have caused six deaths, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says. For every reported illness, dozens go unreported.
