Charlotte snack maker Lance's chief executive said tonight that the company makes all its own peanut butter, doesn't use any peanut supplies involved in the most recent recall and that none of its crackers and cookies have been recalled.
CEO Dave Singer also said that the company's big South Boulevard factory received a “clean bill of health” last week from the N.C. Department of Agriculture following an inspection prompted by the recall.
His comments followed a recall today by the company selling Little Debbie snacks because of a potential link to a deadly salmonella outbreak.
That voluntary recall came one day after the government advised consumers to avoid eating cookies, cakes, ice cream and other foods with peanut butter until health officials learn more about the contamination.
