Skippy Peanut Butter Recall Issued Over Steel Fragment Contamination
The recall affects 9,000 cases sold nationwide which may contain fragments from a piece of manufacturing equipment.

Nearly 200,000 pounds of Skippy peanut butter are being recalled due to a risk that stainless steel metal fragments may have contaminated products sold throughout the United States.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the Skippy peanut butter recall on March 30, after an internal detection system determined that peanut butter jars distributed to retailers in at least 18 states may contain fragments from a piece of manufacturing equipment.
Although no reports of injuries have been received so far by the FDA or the manufacturer, Skippy Foods, LLC, ingesting small metal fragments could result in serious and potentially life-threatening intestinal injuries.
The recalled peanut butter is known to have been sold by retailers in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin. However, it is possible the contaminated peanut butter was distributed in other states.
