After the peanut butter in the United States had been involved in the salmonella outbreak, the Army announced on Thursday that it will remove some peanut butter items from several warehouses in Europe. The European nation has been recently added to the list of recalled peanut products which have been connected to the salmonella outbreak.

More than 420 kinds of cookies, cakes and sweets containing peanut butter have been pulled of the markets’ shelves during one of the largest product recalls in memory, according to the Food and Drug Administration.

The recall from the Army didn’t involve the Meals-Ready-to-Eat but the ones from the military food called Unitized Group Rations-A, which provide a complete 50-person meal. At least 8 people have died because of this peanut butter intoxication outbreak and other 500 people got sickened.

The peanut processing plant from Georgia has been the main source thought to have caused such a big outbreak. The federal inspectors have reported to find roaches, mold and various sanitary plants after they had checked the place for infections.

The Blakely, Ga., plant owned by Peanut Corp. of America still went on with distributing their products even if they had found out they might be intoxicated with salmonella. The company then sent the food items after they had retested them and got back negative results.

The Peanut Corporation enlarged their recall on Wednesday to all the peanut butter goods at the plant since January 1, 2007. Yet, the company makes and distributes only 1% of the peanut products sold in the United States, but those products are used as ingredients in hundreds of other foods. The main brands of peanut butter didn’t get affected by the outbreak or the scandals.
