The Case of the Poisonous Peanut Butter

Doesn't that sound like an Encyclopedia Brown book? I used to love Encyclopedia Brown.

My mom: I had to throw out two jars of peanut butter that were in the lot that might have salmonella in it.
Me: Did grandma call you to tell you about that? (Side note: Back during the whole contaminated spinach episode my grandma called my mom to tell her not to eat spinach...I was left to fend for myself)
My mom: No, I read it in the paper.
Me: You read it in the paper?!?! (Side note: my mom avoids all type of news including TV, radio and newspaper.)
My mom: Luckily it was on the back of sports section.

And that's my mom for you!
