What
types of peanut butter are affected?
All jars of Peter Pan peanut butter purchased since
May 2006 and Great Value peanut butter with a product
code beginning with 2111 purchased since May 2006 may
be affected.
I have a jar of Peter Pan peanut butter purchased
since May 2006 or a jar of Great Value peanut butter
with a product code beginning with the number "2111" stamped
on the lid that has been purchased since May 2006,
and I/my children ate some of it, but no one is sick.
What should I do?
Do not eat any more of the peanut butter. Throw away
the jar. If anyone in your family develops severe diarrheal
illness with bloody diarrhea, fever, or symptoms lasting
more than three days, they should consult a healthcare
provider.

that has been purchased since May 2006 and I/my household

There’s no evidence that this illness has been

the illness is severe with bloody diarrhea, fever,
or symptoms lasting more than three days, you should
consult a healthcare provider.
