All Late July's products are 100% safe and our peanut butter is NOT affected by the recall. - INFORMATION FOR CONSUMERS

Our peanut butter is made by Sunland, Inc and is unequivocally NOT involved in the recall. 

Late July has extremely strict criteria for taste, organic compliance and food safety when finding a new supplier.  We require certificates of analysis from an outside lab, facility audits, customer references and the ability to personally inspect their facility.  As a small, family company we take our responsibility of making food for other families very seriously and must feel satisfied that each supplier we work with meets our criteria. 

When we were first looking for peanut butter there were very few certified organic suppliers of peanut butter that met our criteria.  Also, despite the higher cost, we demanded that our supplier guarantee that they would never use peanuts from China.  We were not comfortable with sourcing organic ingredients from China because of our concerns about both food safety and organic compliance (and this was before all of the recent Chinese food manufacturing problems).  Finally, we found Sunland, Inc.  They are certified USDA organic, kosher, do not source peanuts from China and their testing methods exceed FDA requirements.   Additionally, they make delicious, award-winning peanut butter.

Sunland, Inc.is based in Portales, New Mexico and was formed in 1988 by a group of peanut farmers.  They process all their peanut butter at their own facility.  For over 20 years they have been growing and manufacturing delicious peanut butter to supply direct to consumers and to manufacturers like Late July.  We are very proud to have Sunland as an ingredient partner.  If you have any additional questions about Sunland or our peanut butter, please don't hesitate to ask.

I am so relieved to read this. I have been saying all along that I didn't believe these crackers would be included, but then the news of other organics being recalled made me search. I am ever more committed to buying your products. My three daughters and I thank you.

Thanks for putting this information on your web site! My 8-year-old son was worried about eating your mini-peanut butter crackers - one of his favoirte snacks! I told him I thought it was safe but that we would check out your website to be sure. As soon as we saw your post, he tore open a bag. Thanks for providing quality organic products I feel safe to give my family!

I just checked your web site to see about the peanut recall and whether your peanut butter crackers were on the recall list. I am so thankful that there are small, family-run companies who truly care about quality and not just the bottom line. I feel safe giving my two children your products to eat.
