The Pet Food Recall List GROWS

Everyone is asking when it will end! Every day more and more pet foods are added to the growing list of recalled foods not safe to feed your pets!

NOTE: This is the sixth recall alert in the last 24 hours

American Nutrition is finally recalling their foods containing rice protein concentrate. The recall covers Costco’s Kirkland Signature Super Premium Canned Food, item # 38436, best buy dates of Aug. 21 08 to April 15 of 09.

I identified this company last week on other forums because they were the only pet food company out of Utah and ChemNutra had said one of the five companies they sold RCP to was in Utah. But oh, is American Nutrition in trouble. I predict they will not be able to recover from this one. ANYTHING made by them is going to be suspect.


UPDATE: The ingredient is listed as “rice flour”. Pet Connection has details on how Costco’s recall started.

Itchmo has learned that the recall covers two formulations sold in a single case:

  • Kirkland Signature Super Premium Chicken and Rice Canned food for Dogs
  • Kirkland Signature Super Premium Lamb and Rice Canned food for Dogs

American Nutrition says that their products were tested by them, FDA and state officials and melamine was found by one group.

Chenango Valley is adding one more product to the recall list in addition to SmartPak and Drs. Fosters & Smith products:

  • Lick Your Chops Lamb Meal, Rice & Egg Cat Food in packages with a net weight of 4 lbs. and a code date best used by April 29, 2008.

NOTE: FDA claims they were unaware of either of theses recalls. It’s amazing that after more than a month of recall after recall, that the FDA still can’t get a handle on the information before the blogs do.
