Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Chains Woman to Toilet

Filed under Food Safety | Comments (7)

There is some concern that Reese's Peanut Butter Cups may be tainted with Salmonella as part of the contaminated peanut butter fiasco. One woman says she got sick for a week after eating a King Size Reese's Peanut Butter Cup:

"I'm not trying to start a mass hysteria situation, but I did eat a King Size Reese's Peanut Butter Cup product almost three weeks ago," wrote Althea of Hialeah, Fla. "I got sick with diarrhea later on that same evening and it was an ongoing thing for almost a week ... I couldn't sit down for more than 10 minutes without having to go to the toilet."

Hershey, makers of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, says: "All of our products are safe to consume." The FDA is investigating.

Wow! Thanks for the warning.

you know thats weird my son eats those alot and he is sick now went to hospital with fever diarrhea and vomiting and its been ongoing for a week now he is only 3 and its hard on him

you mean you give those to your son a lot. how does a three yr old decide to eat peanut butter cups on his own?

umm i have a 3 year old niece and she loves Reese's she was at my house one day and found some. and now all i hear is "Aunt Jamie me want Reese's" so that goes to so that 3 year olds can decide to eat them.

Jamie and Shannon - You are both terrible parents. Feeding your kids junk like that.

I have a better suggestion, why not look around your own house for the cause of your food borne illness, and try to get at least one fact straight about it.

It would certainly be a sad thing to see a child who never tasted chocolate or had an ice cream cone.
There is a big difference between "concerned parent" and an insulting fanatic.

man shut the fuck up.
you all suck at life.
fuck yo 3 year old
I ate a peanut butter cup i found under the toilet and shited for 2 years straight.
