Peanut butter and salmonella?

On the news, I heard that there was a recall of certain types of peanut butter because salmonella is present. The weird thing is, salmonella shouldn't get in peanut butter. The only way I could really see it getting in there is from un-sanitary factory conditions.

What do you think about the whole ordeal?

What brand of peanut butter has salmonella? I love peanut butter. Imported peanut butter from states really tastes good. I am afraid, I have to stick to home made peanut butter because of this.

I don't like peanut butter - my son loves it, I have only just allowed him to have it as he had it at a party and he said he wanted it

I love it, I love peanuts I have it on toast or a bagel.

I am the only one in my family that does like it, but i would be scared to hear that it would have some thing wrong with it

I got addicted to the Peter Pan honey peanut butter. So in addicted in fact, that I can't eat regular peanut butter much anymore. Everytime I eat it, I think, "Wow, I wish this had honey in it".

The stuff is amazing. If you haven't tried it , go get it. You might lose your love for regular peanut butter though, careful

Oh goodie, not reached here yet then

My son loves it and it isn't in any brand that we know - so I don't feel so bad at giving it to him

I don't know any one that did that, only in films but it is good to know that someone does it in real life

I do not like peanut butter in general, but hmm , the news is pretty intriguing; can you name a specific brand of peanut butter?
The salmonella does not necessary comes form unsanitary conditions, i guess, there are other way to get it in.
Well, from now on i will refrain from eating peanut butter.
