What is FDA doing to prevent more illnesses from this outbreak?
FDA has posted a list of products being recalled as a result of this outbreak and offered advice to consumers, retailers, directors of institutions and food service establishments, and food manufacturers. This information can be found at www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/salmonellatyph.html. FDA is also working to determine what factors contributed to the peanut butter and peanut paste becoming contaminated with Salmonella Typhimurium. Additionally, the Agency is following up with companies that bought products from PCA and identifying products made with peanut butter or peanut paste from PCA.
