I made a joke the other day that maybe the tainted peanut butter roommate and I have been eating (2 jars we know of with the code in question, 2 we're 96% positive but as we already ate it too late to check) is from the peanuts of animal shit. Then I read this:
How salmonella -- which typically comes from animal feces -- got into the processed peanut butter remains a mystery. According to a report from the Associated Press, rodents and birds sometimes make their way into peanut storage bins at the Sylvester plant, but any salmonella would be killed during the peanut roasting process, when temperatures exceed the 165 degrees needed to destroy the bacteria.
So, potentially, I've been dining on various wild poops. My hypothesis has been proven AND I'm a shit connoisseur! Thank you for the education.
Gastrointestinal distress: delicious.

Ummm. Could this be why you have been sick for 2 months straight????? YIKES. Glad I don't eat PB out of the jar with a spoon anymore...
Yes, salmonella is awesome. There's nothing like being best friends with the toilet for a whole week!
