The Recall List
Menu foods makes a huge number of private label brands and has pulled all of the brands that were in the test.
All foods recalled were sold in pouch or canned form. A number of other companies that sell canned cat foods made by Menu Foods have also initiated voluntary recalls.
If your pet is showing signs of ill health, please call your veterinarian. Renal failure does not have to mean death. Prescription pet food is available and is the standard treatment for chronic renal (kidney) failure.
Here is the list (announced on the last show) of recalled pet food:
Proctor& Gamble which sells IAMS and Eukanuba is recalling the 3 oz., 5.5 oz., 6 oz. and 13.2 oz. of canned and 3 oz. and 5.3 oz. foil pouch "wet" cat and dog food products which were made by Menu Foods Inc. Emporia, Kansas plant
with the code dates of 6339 through 7073 followed by the plant code 4197.
To read can product codes, look at the bottom of the can. The first four numbers of the second line of numbers are the date code, and the following four numbers indicate the plant code. For example, if the second line begins with four numbers from 6339 to 7073 followed by the plant code 4197, then the can should be recalled. For foil pouches, the code numbers are located at the lower left hand corner on the back of the pouch.
Nestlé Purina PetCare Company is voluntarily withdrawing its 5.3 ounce Mighty Dog® brand pouch products that were produced by Menu Foods, Inc. from December 3, 2006 through March 14, 2007.
The Mighty Dog pouch products and pouches in multi-pack cartons have code dates of 6337 through 7073, followed by the plant code 1798. This information should be checked on the bottom or back panel of the individual pouches. Specifically,
if the code following the "Use By" date begins with four numbers from 6337 to 7073 followed by the plant code 1798, then the pouch is included in this voluntary withdrawal. The list from Menu foods website is extensive. NB: These are canned and wet cat pet food. NOT DRY.
Some companies are providing purchasers of the tainted pet food with refunds. Contact the manufacturer for further details.
