Well, this is a new one on me.

The government sets purity standards for foodstuffs, and the inclusion of a certain amount of "foreign matter" is permissible as long as it poses no actual health hazard, under the grounds that it's pretty much impossible to make something absolutely pure at an affordable price.

That said... it's hard to imagine how pig hairs could get into a peanut butter cup. Rodent hairs in chocolate, sure; peanut shells or insect parts in peanut butter, okay; pig hairs in bacon, maybe; pig hairs in chocolate or peanut butter, though, is a bizarre combination.

They certainly aren't intentionally included, if that's what you were asking.
