The Texas Department of State Health Services ordered Peanut Corporation of America to recall all products ever shipped from its Plainview plant as a result of poor cleaning and pest control practices. (The plant began operations in March of 1995.) No specific list of products produced at this plant has been released. While information about this plant is reconciled between the FDA and the Texas state agency in the coming days, we are taking the immediate proactive step of removing from our stores ALL whole peanuts and peanut products from ANY PCA facility. This greatly expands the scope of the recall beyond the original PCA plant in Georgia, and every manufacturer of peanut-containing foods, including us, will need to re-examine their products. We are acting as quickly as possible to determine what products are affected and will update this blog post with recall information as it becomes available for our products and for those of our vendors. Please note: While new research is being conducted, we will not be able to answer questions about specific peanut related products. Additionally, our answers to previous comments and questions about the recall are not necessarily accurate any longer given the expansion.
Here are the recalled items carried in our stores as of noon on 2/20/09:
1. Various bulk bin items. Due to the empowerment of our stores for local and regional buying, our supply chain is very diverse. The bulk departments in our stores are supplied by many different vendors. Some peanut-containing products may be recalled from some stores but not from others due to these different vendors. Contacting your local store is the safest way to ensure you get the most accurate information about any products you have purchased.
