14 Dog and Cat Food Brands Recalled Due to Salmonella

Damn, I thought we were past this but I guess not. 14 more brands of dog and cat foods have been recalled by Mars Petcare US.

The recalled food was made between February and July of this year, and is being recalled after two people who may have had contact with some of the food became infected with salmonella.

The recalled brands include:

~ Pedigree
~ Ol’ Roy
~ Retriever
~ Paws & Claws
~ Member’s Mark
~ Natural Dog Food
~ Natural Cat Food
~ Doggy Bag
~ PMI Nutrition
~ Red Flannel
~ PetPride
~ Special Kitty
~ Country Acres
~ Wegman’s Bruiser
~ Wegman’s Buju & Ziggie

Check under the “Best Before” date for a code that’ll tell you if your food is part of the recall.

For Pedigree, look for look for “PAE” on the bottom line in the sixth, seventh and eighth digits.
Example:
Best Before 02/2009
808G1PAE01 12:00

For all other brands, look for “17″ as the first two digits of the second line.
Example:
Best By Feb 18 09
17 1445 1

If your food is affected, package it up according to these FDA instructions and take it back to the store you bought it from for a refund.
