Jif’s peanut butter in a 1.8 kg package. Recall for fear of salmonella
(Ministry of Health )
This is the second time in a month that the company is recalling its products. About three weeks ago, following a complaint received by the Ministry of Health, it was found that the expiration date of the company’s vegetable soups was extended without official approval from the Ministry of Health. It was vegetable soup, pea soup and orange soup, under the Gusto brand, which Randy imports.
According to the Ministry of Health, in healthy people, the salmonella bacterium can cause intestinal disease that manifests itself in fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. For susceptible populations the bacterium can cause serious illness.
