We are the lucky winners of eating a jar of one of the recalled Peter Pan peanut butter salmonella jars. I would suspect this may have something to do with the "stomach bug" me and the family seemed to pick up last week. Then again, I have small kids. We all have a cold. It could be anything.
Like.... say... Salmonella.

Check the product code starting with "2111"
Bingo! My wife actually called this morning and told me to check. I said "yes dear" and didn't check until much later. I figured, what are the odds. Uh, I guess pretty good.
We ate 2 whole jars with that product number. then we saw the news at 11.
Soo many people in the streets burning peter pan....poor jars.....
my wife just found 2 jars of it and told me to through it away, i didn't know about it and got pissed off thinking she was waisting food until i saw the news.
I just watched it on the news last night. The news advised to keep the lid off the jar and bring it back to the store where you purchased it and you will be re-imbursed. They said to throw the jar of peanut butter in the garbage can.
Just a little 411!!!

We have some of that tainted peanut butter here too! Two jars - unopened!
What the heck? Chickens been getting too close to the peanuts? Or maybe the rats have been helping themselves? I'm still reading on this..............how does salmonella make its' way into peanut butter?
*EDIT
This from a UK paper, medical news.
Exactly how the bacteria got into the jars of peanut butter is still a mystery. The process of making peanut butter heats it to a very high temperature to kill all such pathogens. It is possible said some of the health officials, that the bacteria got in through contaiminated jars. Or perhaps it was on equipment that came into contact with the product after it was heated and before it was sealed in the jar.
Symptoms of Salmonella include fever, stomach ache and diarrhea. Salmonella is not normally life-threatening in healthy people. But it can be very serious for anyone with a compromised immune system, such as someone who is elderly and frail, or already ill with a serious infection, or very underweight.

Flavor enhancer/protein booster.
Trick is to get them into the mix at their freshest point. If they ride around in a truck too long at the wrong temps, or sit on a loading dock and get a little too warm.............
