The recall of peanut butter produced at the Georgia ConAgra plant has expanded to products made since October 2004. The Peter Pan and Great Value brands are at the center of the recall.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 425 people have fallen ill from the outbreak of salmonella that has been traced back to the plant in Sylvester, Ga.

The FDA warned consumers who have purchased any of the products since October 2004 to discard them, and not to eat any Peter Pan or Great Value peanut butter with a product code beginning with 2111.

The recall also includes items made with the peanut butter such as toppings. The original recall only called for those items made since December 2005.
