What is FDA’s advice for consumers?
• Consumers are advised not to eat products that have been recalled and to throw them away in a manner that prevents others from eating them. • FDA urges consumers first to visit FDA’s Web site to determine if commercially prepared or manufactured products containing peanut products from Peanut Corporation of America (such as cookies, crackers, cereal, candy, ice cream, pet food or treats) are subject to recall. Identification of products subject to recall is continuing, and FDA will update its list of recalled products and advice based on new information. Consumers who do not have access to the Internet may obtain this information by calling FDA’s information line at 1-888-SAFEFOOD or CDC’s consumer information hotline that is staffed 24/7 at 1-800-CDC-INFO. • For information on products containing peanuts or peanut products as ingredients from companies not reporting recalls to date, consumers may wish to consult the company’s Web site or call the toll-free number listed on most pack
