Can salmonella contaminate your garbage disposal by putting eggshells in it?

If the eggs are contaminated and carrying a good deal of the bacteria, then obviously, that sickening little organism is going to invade your garbage disposal. Then again, why would you care? I am sure the garbage disposal is rife with all sorts of germs. When thinking of septic environments, any drain - equipped with a disposal or not certainly comes to mind. Run hot water and a disinfectant (bleach possibly)down the drain and in the sink surface if you are concerned. Are you looking to bathe a baby in the sink or something? I wouldn't be putting a child in a sink with a disposal unit installed. Could lop off a leg or something!!!

Is Breyers Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream safe to eat because of the salmonella outbreak just reported with peanut butter foods?

The best thing to do with questions about whether or not a product is included in the recall is to check out the FDA Recall website and the Manufacturer's website. See Related Links.

It looks like the Breyers ice cream products are not involved with this recall.

*I just checked the FDA site for updates (2/13/09). Breyer's Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream is not on the "Ice Creams" recall page, but Breyer's Tin Roof Sundae Ice Cream is. I suggest you go to Breyer's website to check to see if there are any updates.

It seems odd to me that Breyer's would buy peanut products from two different companies for their ice cream. It doesn't make good business sense to me, so I don't entirely trust the info.
