Scotts Miracle-Gro Co., the largest U.S. lawn and garden product maker,
recalled some of its five different varieties of wild bird food on Tuesday
because of concerns that they may contain salmonella-contaminated peanut meal.

One hopes that people had the sense to pitch any feed containing peanuts
long before this recall, but....

Of course, wild birds can carry salmonella, but not necessarily this strain,
so it could still be harmful to them, or to mammals that eat the feed.
