Recall Details

WEST BEND, Iowa, January 29, 2009 – Country Maid Inc, is expanding upon its previous voluntary recall from January, 20, 2009 of 2-pound packages of Classic Breaks Peanut Butter Cookie Dough

Due to the second expanded recall from the Peanut Corporation of America, additional lot numbers of peanut butter are now included that were used to manufacture the peanut butter cookie dough. The peanut butter used to make the cookie dough was supplied by Peanut Corporation of America and may be contaminated with Salmonella.

Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections, particularly in young children, the elderly, and persons with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and/or abdominal pain.  In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses, such as arterial infections (i.e. infected aneurysms), endocarditis, and arthritis.
