The Peanut Butter recall has finally caught me
It looks like Clif Bar is taking some preventative measures. The Mojo bars are some of my favorites especailly the Peanut Butter Pretzel and the new Peanut Butter and Jelly dipped bar. Also, if you want an interesting business book Gary Erickson's Raising the Bar: Integrity and Passion in Life and Business: The Story of Clif Bar & Co. is a great read.

Clif Bar is recalling 14 products in the U.S. and four in Canada because the peanut butter in those products was sourced from the Peanut Corporation of America.
"PCA is under investigation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a recent Salmonella outbreak thought to be caused by tainted peanut butter," a Clif Bar press release said. "In light of this investigation, and with an abundance of caution, Clif Bar & Company has enacted a voluntary recall. We take the health and safety of our consumers very seriously."
In the U.S, the following 14 products are included in the recall. Only bars with wrappers that have the following BEST BY or SELL BY codes on them, in all sizes and packages, are being recalled:
