This is a voluntary recall.  Nothing indicates that the products are adulterated.  But because their supplier of peanut butter is under investigation, they are doing their due dilligence and doing this recall.

If you have consumed one, don't worry.  Just monitor your GI over the coming few days.  Incubation time for Salmo is usually a day or two.  If in a week, you are fine, I wouldn't worry about it.

If you haven't, just pitch em, and call for a refund.

So THAT explains my recent bout. I blamed the wife for the past 3 days. Guess I should take it back........or just keep it up and make her feel bad about putting my first half-marathon in jepordy.

No honey it wasn't my lack of training....it was probably your food handling or under cooking the chicken.
