Salmonella scare linked to peanut butter

A brand of peanut butter used primarily in schools, hospitals, long-term care facilities and restaurants is possibly connected to a nationwide outbreak of salmonella.

The product has been voluntarily recalled by its distributor, King Nut Companies of Solon, Ohio.

The peanut butter is not manufactured by King Nut but is made for the company by the Peanut Corporation of America in Lynchburg, Virginia.

Salmonella tainted food used in schools, hospitals and long-term care facilities subjects children, the ill and the elderly to a serious disease.
