STORY:

Pet Deaths Prompt Recall of Pet Food
By ANDREW BRIDGES, Associated Press Writer

Fri Mar 16, 11:22 PM
WASHINGTON - A major manufacturer of dog and cat food sold under Wal-
Mart, Safeway, Kroger and other store brands recalled 60 million
containers of wet pet food Friday after reports of kidney failure and
deaths.

An unknown number of cats and dogs suffered kidney failure and about
10 died after eating the affected pet food, Menu Foods said in
announcing the North American recall. Product testing has not
revealed a link explaining the reported cases of illness and death,
the company said.

"At this juncture, we're not 100 percent sure what's happened," said
Paul Henderson, the company's president and chief executive officer.
However, the recalled products were made using wheat gluten purchased
from a new supplier, since dropped for another source, spokeswoman
Sarah Tuite said. Wheat gluten is a source of protein.

The recall covers the company's "cuts and gravy" style food, which
consists of chunks of meat in gravy, sold in cans and small foil
pouches between Dec. 3 and March 6 throughout the U.S., Canada and
Mexico.

The pet food was sold by stores operated by the Kroger Co., Safeway
Inc., Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and PetSmart Inc., among others, Henderson
said.

Menu Foods did not immediately provide a full list of brand names and
lot numbers covered by the recall, saying they would be posted on its
Web site _ https://www.menufood s.com/recall _ early Saturday.
Consumers with questions can call (866) 463-6738.

Repeated calls to that number over several hours Friday night got
only a busy signal. Attempts to reach a company spokeswoman for an
explanation were unsuccessful.

The company said it manufacturers for 17 of the top 20 North American
retailers. It is also a contract manufacturer for the top branded pet
food companies, including Procter & Gamble Co.

P&G announced Friday the recall of specific 3 oz., 5.5 oz., 6 oz. and
13.2 oz. canned and 3 oz. and 5.3 oz. foil pouch cat and dog wet food
products made by Menu Foods but sold under the Iams and Eukanuba
brands. The recalled products bear the code dates of 6339 through
7073 followed by the plant code 4197, P&G said.

Menu Foods' three U.S. and one Canadian factory produce more than 1
billion containers of wet pet food a year. The recall covers pet food
made at company plants in Emporia, Kan., and Pennsauken, N.J.,
Henderson said.

Henderson said the company received an undisclosed number of owner
complaints of vomiting and kidney failure in dogs and cats after they
had been fed its products. It has tested its products but not found a
cause for the sickness.

"To date, the tests have not indicated any problems with the
product," Henderson said.

The company alerted the Food and Drug Administration, which already
has inspectors in one of the two plants, Henderson said. The FDA was
working to nail down brand names covered by the recall, agency
spokesman Mike Herndon said.

Menu Foods is majority owned by the Menu Foods Income Fund, based in
Ontario, Canada.

Henderson said the recall would cost the company the Canadian
equivalent of $26 million to $34 million.

Thanks για την ενημέρωση, Gwgw. Από τις μάρκες αυτές, στην Ελλάδα νομίζω ότι κυκλοφορούν μόνο EUKANUBA/IAMS. Μπήκα στην ιστοσελίδα τους και γράφει ότι η απόσυρση των τροφών αφορά μόνο Αμερική και Καναδά:
https://us.eukanuba.com/eukanuba/global/EukanubaAroundtheWorld.htm
The Menu Foods recall affects many wet food brands distributed in the U.S. and Canada. This recall does not affect any Iams or Eukanuba products marketed outside of the U.S. and Canada.

Εξάλλου, μπήκα και στην ελληνική ιστοσελίδα της εταιρίας, και απ' ό,τι είδα πουλάνε μόνο ξηρά τροφή.
