Peanut Corporation of America Expands Nationwide Recall of Peanut Products

by on

FDA posted this corporate news release today: “Peanut Corporation of America (PCA) is voluntarily recalling all peanuts and peanut products processed in its Blakely, Georgia facility since Jan. 1, 2007. Previously, PCA announced a recall of peanut butter and peanut paste. PCA sells its products to institutional and industrial users for service in large institutions or for sale and further processing by other companies. PCA does not sell peanuts or peanut products directly to consumers in stores.”

  • See also the FDA Peanut Inspection Report – Blakely, GA, which via FindLaw states: “The U.S. Food & Drug Administration’s inspection of a peanut butter and peanut paste processing facility in Georgia found harmful Salmonella at different places in the facility. Inspectors concluded that the Peanut Butter Corporation of America “[f]ail[ed] to manufacture foods under conditions and controls necessary to minimize the potential for growth of microorganisms and contamination.” The company also was cited for “failure to maintain equipment, containers and utensils used to convey, hold, and store food in a manner that protects against contamination.”
