The Quaker Oats Co. said Tuesday it is recalling a limited number of Aunt Jemima Pancake & Waffle Mix products because of potential salmonella contamination from raw or undercooked ingredients.
The company said a small quantity of Aunt Jemima Pancake & Waffle Mix: Original, Original Complete and Buttermilk Complete products are included in the recall. The recalled products are sold in 2 pound and 5 pound boxes with best-before dates of Feb. 8, 2009 through Feb. 16, 2009 stamped on the top.
The company added that no illnesses have been reported.
Quaker said any consumers with the recalled products can return them to the place they were purchased for a full refund.
The company said it has identified the warehouses involved and is in the process of recovering any products that were potentially contaminated.

mine had the date very clear on the top. actually it said “USE BY Dec 7 08″ so you may want to double check you are reading the date and not like the lot number or something. They seriously should make these dates easier to read. I swear sometimes its like they write it in code!
luckily, my box did not fall within the affected date range. hopefully yours does not either!
