Wondering what foods in your home are part of the nationwide peanut-product recall?

We've got the full, interactive list from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration:

Most Americans know about a peanut-based national salmonella outbreak but many are wrong about what products are involved and few have confidence in food safeguards, according to a Harvard survey released Friday and reported by the Associated Press.

About 1 in 4 of those polled mistakenly think that national peanut butter brands are involved in the product recalls, but fewer than half are worrying about recalled snack bars, baked goods, ice cream and dry-roasted peanuts.

The recall of 1,900 products includes mainly minor-label peanut butter and a range of other items, but not major brand names of jarred peanut butter.

"A lot of people have taken some precautions but they're not looking at the ingredients in products not related to peanut butter," said Robert Blendon, the Harvard health policy professor who directed the survey.

Bear Poop? Bear Scat? Chicken Coop Poop? Deer Droppings? Moose Droppings? Osprey Poop?

And we used to think Squirrel Nuts were something to giggle about.
