Over on The Crabby Office Lady site is a post on Excel viewer aids peanut butter recall awareness. The FDA published the Peanut Butter Recall information in Excel.

I downloaded it, saved it as a CSV and used the PowerShell code from Social Networks and Pork Barrel Spending? that wrapped the NetMap (now called NodeXL) visualization control from Microsoft Research.
