Drat, I've been using that peanut butter for making suet (mixed with
lard, seeds & other birdie goodies). Do birds get sick from salmonella?
OTOH, I do melt the lard so maybe it got hot enough to kill the
salmonella.

With all these food recalls, it seems like the FDA is doing very little
in the way of prevention these days. Our tax dollars at work for the
food industry....
