Skippy Foods, LLC issued a voluntary recall for more than 161,000 pounds of peanut butter due to the possible presence of small stainless stell fragments. A few of Skippy's peanut butter variations are affected by this recall.
According to CNN Business, the problem has been detected by Skippy's internal systems at the factory where the peanut butter spread was made. Based on the assessment, 9,353 cases of the Skippy jars were affected, and this involves three types of peanut butter.
On Wednesday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration posted the recall notice on its website. The peanut butter maker that is owned by Hormel Foods confirmed it is recalling over 9,000 cases of its peanut butter products, voluntarily.
It was mentioned that the stainless steel fragments that were found in Skippy peanut butter jars came from a piece of manufacturing equipment. The company explained that the recall has been immediately issued as a precautionary measure, and it wants to make sure that the quality of its products is not compromised and in top grade.
"Skippy Foods, LLC, out of an abundance of caution and with an emphasis on the quality of its products, is issuing the recall to ensure that consumers are made aware of the issue," the company said in the recall notice on the USFDA's page. "The manufacturing facility's internal detection systems identified the concern."
In any case, the affected products are the SKIPPY Reduced Fat Creamy Peanut Butter with expiry dates of May 4-5, 2023, SKIPPY Reduced Fat Creamy Peanut Butter with the expiry date of May 5, 2023, SKIPPY Reduced Fat Chunky Peanut Butter with "best used by" May 6-7, 2023 dates, and lastly, the SKIPPY Creamy Peanut Butter Blended With Plant Protein with the expiry date of May 10, 2023.
Finally, NBC News reported that the recalled peanut butter products were made in Little Rock, Arkansas, and these were delivered to California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin. Skippy is calling on the customers to return their jars to where they were bought or get in touch with the company if they have purchased the items mentioned.
