1. This must be why I couldn't find it at Costco. nt

[sinkingfeeling]

2. Mine starts out 2040006. Thanks for posting.

3. Throw it out? Is there a refund?

Is there a refund when something like this happens?

8. You can probably get a refund. No receipt needed depending on where you bought it.

We live in a no questions return world right now. Well, for everyone but non whites - they keep receipts.

9. the article i just read said to throw it out

I would assume you can only get a refund if you get it through the policy of the story you bought it from, which typically means within 30 days and with a receipt.

4. Thank you, my UPC number was on the list so I threw it away.

I’d already eaten half of it with no problems, though, so I guess I got lucky?

[El Supremo]

10. Me too!

No symptoms.

[Backseat Driver]

19. Bingo for matching codes recently purchased creamy twin-pack - Neither jar is opened yet,

so I'll be asking for a refund or exchange.

[LeftInTX]

22. Me too

Bought some Peter Pan to replace it.

5. Thanks! The jar I bought on Thursday is in that numerical range.

6. Thank you. We found 6 - Richmond VA

Yes we just made a big PB haul.

7. look for the 425 and find it if you have it then look at the 4 digits in front of it

Because the numbers on my jar are formatted entirely different from this format.
And guess what? The four numbers in front of the 425 on mine are 2006.

So I win the chance to buy another jar of peanut butter.
yay.
We have eaten half of this one.

Indianoplace IN.

11. Thanx for this alert. I have a jar, not in the range of numbers, but I won't eat this anyway.

CDC says there are additional products not listed. I'm calling Instacart for a refund.

12. Ah shit

I have two, one is half eaten.

[DFW]

16. What's that they say about what is worse than finding a worm in an apple you just bit into?

Oh yeah--finding HALF a worm in an apple you just bit into!

[Marius25]

13. Just got back from the store. Was wondering why there was no JIF on shelves

[DFW]

14. Just in time..I hope

My wife loves American peanut butter, and always buys it when we're in the States, which starts five weeks from now!

[Nittersing]

17. What's the difference from what you can buy locally?

Does Germany not do peanut butter?

[DFW]

20. Hardly at all

It’s almost never available here except in specialty stores that sell imported foods. Some place over in Holland made a limited edition version that had to be stirred up before use every time because the ingredients would separate, and it looked like something out of a toxic waste dump. It did not sell well.

[LeftInTX]

23. Ah...we also have that here...it's called "Natural Peanut Butter"

I used to purchase it when I was on a health kick about 30 years ago, except I don't have the muscles to deal with it..LOL

Products like Jif contain hydrogenated fat, which keeps the fat emulsified.


Churn baby churn......

15. Thank you

My new jar is on the recall... dang it. But thanks. I used it once with no ill effects, but don't think I'll tempt the fates with the rest of it.

[KarenS]

18. I think this is confusing

on the Jif website they have the upc codes of the affected types, then also those product codes,,,,

the type I buy is not the right upc code,,,, but the product code is within range unless that 425 is static,,,, then it's not

21. Hubby said glad he bought at Costco long time ago

Ours starts number 119....
