Peanut butter products recalled at Ball State

If you're hoping to grab a peanut butter snack for your dinner tonight, you're out of luck.

Peanut butter-based snacks, such as crackers and some Little Debbies, are unavailable to students and other customers. Those products were recalled because traces of salmonella were spotted. Elizabeth Poore, director of operations at Ball State University, said she didn't know if any of the products at the university were contaminated.

"That's why we took them off the shelves," Poore says. "We give them back to the vendor that we purchase them from and they give us a credit."

It's the second time in less than two years that Ball State has had to take peanut butter products off the shelves due to salmonella concerns.

Poore says dining services began taking the products off the shelves late Friday afternoon, immediately after hearing Kellogg's products were a part of the suspected contamination. She says the products will be available as soon as Ball State gets the OK from the production companies.
