The Food Drive

National brands of jarred peanut butter available to consumers are NOT affected by the recall and continue to be one of the most wanted foods for the food drive.

See previous posts for a link to the Food and Drug Administration list of recalled items. It is advised to avoid donation of products containing peanuts, peanut butter or peanut butter paste (such as baking mixes, snacks and sauces.)

To confirm: (primarily because a few news reports last weekend were incorrect) It is safe to distribute retail peanut butter in jars and our local food banks continue to do this.
