WASHINGTON — Federal health officials say the salmonella recall now involves about 31 million pounds of products containing peanut butter and peanut paste.
That’s a whole lot of peanut butter. But consider this: The nonprofit National Peanut Board says Americans eat 700 million pounds of the gooey stuff every year.
Peanut Corp. of America — the company that made the recalled products — provides peanut paste to others to make dozens of goodies, from energy bars to cakes to dog biscuits.
No major national brands of peanut butter are affected. The full list of recalled products can be found online at .
