An attorney for a Vermont family whose child was sickened after eating tainted peanut butter crackers said Thursday that they will add Kellogg Co. to their lawsuit. The addition of Kellogg as a defendant comes as the Peanut Corporation of America’s sole insurance carrier announced it would seek to limit liability in connection with the recent salmonella outbreak. Kellogg manufactured the crackers that allegedly caused the child’s illness, the family’s lawsuit says.
