Costco would win cuz I wouldn't stand in the return line for peanut butter.
If you go on a non-busy day there's barely any line at all. and this is $10 worth of PB! they have called and sent a letter about this so if i really wanted to i could probably call and get the refund authorized over the phone. costco knows everything you have ever bought from them. i once had them look up a mattress topper I bought 10 years ago.
returning the peanut butter would be an excuse to go to Costco and possibly the Apple store next door...
You don't even need an excuse, go to Costco and then the Apple Store, you know you want to.

If you empty the jar then would you even qualify for a refund? Take it back and get a new full jar.
With Costco for a refund on a recall - yes, whether I ate it or not. That's how they roll. What they'll probably do is refund what I paid and then if I want I'll go buy more.

The typical incubation period—from exposure to developed illness— is 6 or so hours up to three days, but certain types can make you ill 10 or more days later, and you may not normally connect those dots after that timeframe. If you already partook of recalled merchandise, I would save the information from the jar and receipt and get your doctor to perform a culture, should symptoms develop through 10 days. Someone from your local health dept. would likely call you, if you are subsequently diagnosed, and you'd be prepared to give them that pertinent info.

Your reply should have said "Boy, get'your lazy butt in line Stop being lazy. That pizza isn't going anywhere."

That is usually the case but there are a few medicines that break down into dangerous chemical compounds. Those can make you sick, or worse if enough is taken and there are other medical problems. Examples are the drugs Tetracycline and Cipro and related compounds.

Just great. I’ve been carrying ciprofloxacin in my travel kit for three years (bought where no prescription for antibiotics was required). But, thanks for the heads-up.

Cipro is fairly stable, so it may depend a lot on storage conditions of that travel kit. But if it does break down liver damage has been reported, though it is reversible. So probably OK a year or two or three past expiration, but not indefinitely. A somewhat more concerning issue for healthy individuals who take it may be loss of potency or running into bacteria that have developed resistance to overuse and improper use of this antibiotic.
