Skippy is recalling tens of thousands of jars of two kinds of peanut butter distributed to 18 states, including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, over concerns the products could be contaminated by small fragments of stainless steel. Fewer than 10,000 (9,353) cases of SKIPPY® Reduced Fat Peanut Butter Spread and SKIPPY® Creamy Peanut Butter Blended with Plant Protein are affected by the recall. That amounts to roughly 60,000 jars, according to one report. Skippy described the recalled items as “a very limited number” and said it was pulling them from shelves out of an abundance of caution over potential contamination that may have come from manufacturing equipment. No injuries have been reported to date, the company said. Skippy Foods is voluntarily recalling a small quantity of SKIPPY® Reduced Fat Peanut Butter Spread and SKIPPY® Creamy Peanut Butter Spread Blended With Plant Protein. No other varieties are impacted.
