POISONED PET FOOD:
THE LIST OF NEW RECALLS:
As Molly promised earlier here is a list of the new items on the pet food recall list, items that were announced yesterday on an FDA press release. These foods were made by Chenango Valley Foods around the same time as they made foods with "rice protein concentrate" supplied by Wilbur-Ellis. Once more the excuse is "cross-contamination" which, in Molly's opinion, means that, like Menu Foods, they simply don't clean their machinery well (or at all ???) between batches. This brings up the question of what is the "industry standard" for how long crud will be allowed to cling to the sides of machinery before it "has to be cleaned" ? Is it maybe when everybody in the plant can smell it ? Anyways, here's the list:
Doctors Foster and Smith Lamb and Brown Rice Formula Adult Dog Food (dry food)
Shop Rite Redi-Mixt Dog Food for Dogs (only in America- Molly) (dry food)
Lick Your Chops Kitten & Cat Food (dry food)
Shep Chunk Style Dog Food (dry food)
8 in 1 Ferret Ultra-Blend Advanced Nutrition Diet (dy food)
Bulk Lamb and Brown Rice Formula Dog Food (sold only to 'Smart-Pak')
Health Diet Cat Food Chicken and Rice Dinner (dry food)
Evolve Kitten Formula (dry food)
Chenango foods can be contacted at 1-610-821-0608.
ONLY IN AMERICA DEPT:
Only in America would something be labelled as "Dog Food for Dogs". Something like "caution-hot" on a cup of hot coffee. So strange.
