Check your jars of peanut butter!! Many have gotten salmonella poisoning from Con Agra peanut butter.

The first 4 lot numbers are 2111. Con Agra produces Great Value and Peter Pan peanut butter.

I have some too, and have been eating it (sparingly)without incident.

Are we supposed to just chuck them, or can we bring them back to a store and get a new jar?

My daughter had an unopened jar of Peter Pan with the 2111 code!

God was watching. Her daughter (nearly 3) ALREADY has serious food problems (preemie, pyloric stenosis)and is very slender.

She took the jar back to the grocery store for a refund and they still had lots of Peter Pan on the shelves. They were unaware of the news...

Geeze. There should be an automatic "alert" to the grocery chains, IMO.

If you have the jars, do not take a chance. My husband has been ill for over a month and no one has been able to figure it out.

Started with major stomach and digestive system issues. Severe pain and vomiting. Horrible chills, fever, then developed a urinary tract issue and worse..Until 2 days ago no one could figure it out.

He had been able to function for all but a few days but was finally given an abx for the UTI which must have worked to kill the salmonella. Even had the urologist stumped. He said men almost never get UTI's, but now looking up the possible complications, many were listed.

He has always been a Peter Pan fanatic. But no more.

Thanks for posting this! I've been fighting chronic salmonella - which can lead to reactive arthritis - and it is no fun, on top of TBIs.

My LLMD's theory is that those of us with TBIs are more susceptible to chronic salmonella - so... Chuck the Peter Pan!

I don't even know what to say!!
This pnb also gave me a bad stomach virus. I've never thrown up (etc.) so bad in my life. Actually made the comment that night that I felt like I was gonna die. Had fever and the whole nine yards. It was bad. Glad my body rejected it, and I didn't eat too much.


I knew I had the contaminated pnb (as of last night), but it wasn't until I read this thread that I put it all together.

We also had a jar of this Peter Pan. Tuesday & Wed I had a sandwich for lunch. Then news hit Wed afternoon. I've not reacted to it. Husband?

He has been fighting some stomach thing off and on for 2 weeks now. We thought it was the stomach flu and now we're not so sure. He remembers eating some peter pan and crackers one afternoon.

Then last week with his stomach and intestinal thing going on I decided to do a light dinner of tomato soup and peanut butter sandwich. Bad idea.


I had been running cold/flu rife treatments on him, but the spasms in his stomach and colon had continued. Made me think that maybe he needed something more. Thur evening he rifed for diarreha (sp). So Fri was great. hhmmmm?

Last night I started rife sessions for salmonella after spending the day reading how salmonella is not always cured with abx and could settle to other areas in the body.

So I use the rife machine for many things besides lyme and TBD.

I love peanut butter. But we buy the peanut butter with real peanut oil. Peanut butter bought in markets has the peanut oil replaced with soybean oil. Peanut oil is very valuable.

Plus lots of corn syrup is added to cover the taste of the soybeans... Soy oil can cause problems with the thyroid... Super Market peanut butter is really candy...

Natural peanut butter takes getting used to. The peanut oil will separate and has to be stirred occasionally. Of course no sugar and salt is added.

Natural peanut butter costs about a dollar more for only 18oz. But it is nothing but peanuts and is good. It is really good mixed with honey.

I like the New Zealand Manuka honey. It has an unusual taste and is a super antibiotic. Manuka honey is expensive, but I have a friend in New Zealand that keeps me supplied..
