methinks you are going to be very, very busy this week . . . .   

3cat it is spreading just like you said that it would be getting bigger. Reminds one of the pet food recalls - they spread and spread and spread some more. Glad I do not like peanut butter anything. Advised my friend today to not eat any more peanut butter cups - cause you never know....

Just don't let anyone you care about, friends, family, children eat peanut-anything right now.
I believe today's notices explain why this is spreading so fast, particularly the Wal-Mart
baked goods peanut cookies. Also now includes Pet Food paste and Feed Grade peanut butter []:

Peanut Corporation of America Expands Nationwide Recall of Peanut Butter
Company Announces the Voluntary Recall of Peanut Paste Produced in Georgia Plant
Contact:
Peanut Corporation of America
1-877-564-7080

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Lynchburg, Va. (January 18, 2009) -- Peanut Corporation of America (PCA), is expanding the recall of peanut butter and voluntarily recalling peanut paste made at its Blakely, Georgia facility because the products have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.

The recalled peanut butter and peanut paste were distributed to institutions, food service industries, and private label food companies in 24 states, the province of Saskatchewan in Canada, Korea and Haiti. The U.S. states are the following: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia. In addition, affected product was used as an ingredient in other products that may have been distributed in other states

The following is a list of all the products affected by the original recall and the amended recall:

General Mills recalls 2 peanut butter-flavored products

"General Mills Inc voluntarily recalled two varieties of peanut butter-flavored snack bars, saying peanut butter in the products was sourced from Peanut Corp of America and may be contaminated with salmonella.
"U.S. health authorities told consumers on Saturday to avoid eating products that contain peanut butter until they can determine the scope of an outbreak of salmonella food poisoning that may have contributed to six deaths.

"General Mills, which also makes Cheerios cereal and Yoplait yogurt, said the products recalled were Larabar Peanut Butter Cookie flavor snack bars and JamFrakas Peanut Butter Blisscrisp flavor snack bars.

"A combined 15,000 cases of product were involved, but no illnesses have been reported in connection with either product, the company said in a statement.
"No other types, varieties or flavors of Larabar or JamFrakas products are being recalled, the company said, adding that no other General Mills products were involved or impacted."

Have given up trying to cross-post related threads, but thanks to JustMe, menusux, straybaby, lesliek, and all others posting on this topic as information becomes available. See Recall(Non-Pet Food) index.
