Yes, it's true. Dole has recalled thousands of cases of fresh
cantaloupe because of a possiblity that it is infected with salmonella.
Now, if you boil the hell out of it along with your peanut butter.
You'll be A-OK.

SATURDAY, Feb. 17 (HealthDay News) -- The tainted-food scare widened
Saturday with the recall of fresh cantaloupe and selected jars of
organic baby food.

Dole Fresh Fruit Co. recalled several thousand cartons of imported
cantaloupes after the fruit tested positive for salmonella, the bacteria
involved in the nationwide peanut butter recall earlier this week.

Dole late Friday said the recall covered roughly 6,104 cartons of Costa
Rican cantaloupes distributed to wholesalers in the eastern United
States and Quebec between Feb. 5 and Feb. 8, the Associated Press
reported. There were no reports of illness.

On Wednesday, ConAgra Foods Inc. recalled its Peter Pan peanut butter
and batches of Wal-Mart's Great Value peanut butter after they were
linked to a salmonella outbreak that has sickened almost 300 people in
39 states.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned consumers late
Friday not to use certain jars of Earth's Best Organic 2 Apple Peach
Barley Wholesome Breakfast baby food because they may be contaminated
with Clostridium botulinum, which can cause botulism, a life-threatening
illness.

The manufacturer, Hain Celestial Group of Melville, N.Y., initiated a
recall on Feb. 9 of 4,072 cases of individual jars and 38,298 variety
packs, the FDA said in a prepared statement. Production and distribution
of the baby food has been suspended while the FDA and the company work
to determine the source of the problem.
