Skippy remembers peanut butter because she fears it contains pieces of METAL

OVER 150,000 pounds of peanut butter was pulled from shelves Wednesday night.

Skippy Foods announced the move Wednesday night over concerns some jars could contain small pieces of metal.

The small pieces of steel probably come from production plants.

The Food and Drug Administration also announced the recall, requesting that 9,353 cases of the peanut butter be removed.

There have been no customer reports of fragments found in the peanut butter.

Skippy said it was voluntarily recalling the product out of “excess of caution.” Internal detection systems alerted the company to the problem.

The company says the recalled peanut butter was shipped to 18 states: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma , and Wisconsin.

The following products were affected:

• FAST® Creamy Reduced Fat Peanut Butter, 40 oz
• FAST® Creamy Reduced Fat Peanut Butter – Club, 2/40 oz
• FAST® Reduced Fat Chunky Peanut Butter, 16.3 oz
• FAST® Creamy Peanut Butter Blended with Plant Protein, 14 oz

If you bought one of these products, you can return it to the store where you bought it.
