Items with an asterisk (*) are the only 2009 produced items (when looking for
lot numbers). These products were sold in grocery, warehouse and other
retail stores throughout the United States. It is possible that
some products may have already been purchased by consumers and therefore
anyone who has purchased the following products with the expiration dates
listed should dispose of the product or return the product to the store for
a full refund.
Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and 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, endocarditis and arthritis. For more information on Salmonella, please visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Website at http://www.cdc.gov.
Due to this ongoing investigation, the company has immediately ceased manufacturing any items with peanut butter and has segregated all finished products of concern. While none of the Sinbad, Michael’s and Rain Creek Baking Company branded products have been identified as contaminated or linked to any illness, Rain Creek Baking Corporation is requesting that the peanut butter dessert items be removed while the FDA continues its investigation to verify the source of a nationwide outbreak.
If consumers have any concerns or health questions, they should seek medical attention. No other Sinbad® or Rain Creek Baking Corporation® products or flavors are included in this recall.
