The Instant Pot company announced it has received “a small number” of overheating reports of its Gem 65 8-in-1 Multicooker, which causes the unit’s base to melt.

 

Consumers are asked to check the bottom of the unit to find the batch code to see if their cooker is affected.  If your unit has any of the following codes — 1728, 1730, 1731, 1734 and 1746 — stop using it immediately.  Anyone with questions is asked to call the company at 1-800-828-7280 Ext. 2.

If you have purchased Skippy Reduced Fat Peanut Butter, you might want to check your pantry to see if its included in a massive recall.  Some jars are tainted with salmonella and you can become ill if you consume it.   

 

Unilever, maker of Skippy, says you should stay away from some batches of Skippy Reduced Fat Creamy Peanut Butter Spread and Skippy Reduced Fat Super Chunk Peanut Butter Spread.

The product was distributed to retail outlets in Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.

 

The affected product, which is packaged in 16.3 oz plastic jars, is as follows:

 

 •        UPCs: 048001006812 and 048001006782 (located on the side of the jar’s label below the bar code.)
    •        Best-If-Used-By Dates: MAY1612LR1, MAY1712LR1, MAY1812LR1, MAY1912LR1, MAY2012LR1 and MAY2112LR1 (Stamped on the lid of the jar.)

 

 

If you find the you have one of the contaminated products,  contact Skippy at 800-453-3432, which is operational 24 hours a day, for information on the recall. In addition, a consumer services representative is available Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:30 AM and 6:00 PM EST.  They will send you a replacement coupon for a new product.
