Has anyone heard how far back this recall goes? Reason I ask is bc i bought those Austin peanut butter crackers from BJs back in aug/sept and i still have some left. I've gone through at least half the box and havent died. wouldn't you think it's ok to finish it?

 

I can't give you an exact date, but I heard it took a while to put all the pieces together. If I was you I would go on the cautious side.

Having been through a number of packaging facilities I often see product get intermingled from different production lines and you also don't know when one lot of peanut product started and one ended.

Short answer - You might only have one package of bad product in that whole bulk container.

 

I would think they are ok, if you'd eaten half the box...

however, my rule is about food in general and its quality/freshness:

When in doubt, throw it out. :mrgreen:

 

I had a box of them as well, my children had eaten a little more than half of the packages but I threw it out to be on the safe side....you never know---it only takes one to screw up the bunch!!

 

I have the same large amount of Austin crackers from BJ'S. I am throwing them out as well.

 

Thanks! Glad my Blue Bunny bunny tracks ice cream was not on the list.

I was surprised to see pet food on there.

 

Hooray for a local company

They say that you are not in any jeopardy because they make their own Peanut Butter. Which is a relief because we have about a case of them.

thanks guys. guess i will throw out my austin crackers too!

 

Don't throw them away. Bring them back to the food store for a refund. Even if you don't have the receipt they should give you a refund because it is on the recall list.

 

ooo didn't think of that! thanks.
glad i'm a procrastinator (still havent thrown them out yet haha)

 

I sincerely hope, the area schools are getting rid of all the peanut butter products in the school. jic:?
