Ohio-based King Nut acknowledged in a statement that salmonella had been found in an open 5-pound tub of King Nut peanut butter.

“We are very sorry this happened,” Martin Kanan, president of King Nut Companies, said in the statement. “We are taking immediate and voluntary action because the health and safety of those who use our products is always our highest priority.”

King Nut peanut butter was identified as the source of an outbreak that may have contributed to one death in Minnesota, state public health officials said Friday.

King Nut said Saturday that peanut butter sold under its label was manufactured by Peanut Corporation of America. The release gave no other details on the manufacturer, but Peanut Corporation of America’s Web site lists its headquarters as Lynchburg, Virginia, and says it has processing operations in Virginia, Georgia and Texas.

Peanut Corporation of America could not be immediately reached for comment.

MEGA toys is recalling as many as 1.1 million Magtastik and Magnetix Jr. Preschool toy kits. The toys are manufactured in China.

Thus far their have been as many as 19 incidents of magnets breaking loose from the toys, while one other faces injury after a magnet became stuck in his nasal cavity. He is currently hospitalized.

The products in question are commonly sold at large department stores such as Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Toys R Us, and other retailers.

Customers who have purchased the Magtastik and Magenetix Jr toys can be returned to MEGA toys . Those customers can then in return receive a replacement toy free of cost.

There is also a second toy being recalled. With Easter celebrations just a day away some 13,000 Camouflage eggs and spinning Egg top toys are being recalled.

The Chinese manufactured toys sold at Hobby Lobby Stores between January and March of this year are said to be coated with excessive levels of lead paint that exceed safe federally permitted limits. No injuries or deaths have yet been documented or reported.

Customers who have these toys are urged to contact Hobby Lobby and then receive a $3.00 exchange card that can be used to purchase an alternate Hobby Lobby product.
