Low-fat Skippy peanut butter has been recalled due to contamination from salmonella:

I looked it up, and salmonella is mostly transfered by the "fecal/oral route." How disgusting is that? Someone has been shitting on the peanuts which end up in your pb and j sandwich. Really. Skippy says the contamination was due to the fertilizer used on its peanut crops. What the hell kind of fertilizer are they using? The Skippy people aren't saying. Too much information I guess.
But not to worry. Salmonella mostly only kills small children and the elderly. So go ahead, give the neighbor's bratty 2 year old a nice piece of bread slathered with Skippy. Grandpa showing signs of Alzheimer's? Pile on the PB and save thousands in nursing home bills.
I bet on top of everything else, those peanuts are genetically engineered mutant clones. Where's Jimmy Carter when we need him?
