Clif Bar recalls some peanut products
Recalled brands include Clif Bar, Luna, ZBaR, Clif Mojo and Builders.

Clif Bar has joined the growing list of manufacturers recalling peanut products distributed by a supplier linked to a salmonella outbreak.

Over the past week, several companies have recalled products, ranging from cereal to ice cream, because the products included peanut ingredients supplied by Peanut Corporation of America.

For a complete list of recalls, go to the Food and Drug Administration's site.

Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems, according to the FDA. Healthy persons infected with salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.

In rare circumstances, infection with salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections endocarditis and arthritis.

If you have the bars, destroy them, but keep the "Best By/Sell By" code found on the back of the package. You can contact Clif Bar & Company at 1-800-254-3227 or go to the Clif Bar Web site.
