Jif Peanut butter recall

[Starise]

Being from the southern US I lived in close proximity to peanut fields. I would walk around those fields to get into the wooded areas around my house. Cotton, peanuts and soy beans were the main crops in that region. It was interesting to see  both cotton and peanuts in their natural states. The last time I visited there, I stopped by a cotton field and saved a stray plant for memories sake.

Boiled peanuts which I love are a common down there. I haven't even seen canned boiled peanuts up here and I kinda miss them.

Sometimes I'll buy a bag of peanuts in the shell and snack on them. 

TBH we have been getting so many scares lately I don't know who to believe. Chicken farms here are killing off thousands of supposedly infected chickens, food plants are burning down. We had a peanut butter scare a few years ago. Huge forest fires out west. The list seems to never end. What's it going to be next week? Looks like maybe Monkeypocks.

 I appreciate the heads up on the peanut butter @missmuffetIt's good to at least be aware of these things.

I have heard of boiled peanuts but I have never eaten them. Now all the things that have peanut butter in them is being recalled.

Regular Jif isn't to be found here... except for 3/4 ounce cups which are currently out of stock. Well, at least they were thorough about it?

Is that unusual for your area?

It appears to be nationwide, as far as I know. I searched the largest retailer's website (Wal-Mart remains the largest retailer), and regular Jif has been removed from their stock.
