According to Menu Foods, the manufacturer of pet
food that began recalling that food over contamination issues, their recall is
now expanding. The original recall included wet
cat and dog food produced with adulterated wheat gluten supplied by ChemNutra
Inc. Menu
Foods is now expanding the
recall to include cuts and gravy and select other products which do not include
ChemNutra wheat gluten but which were manufactured at any of Menu Foods’ plants
during the period that ChemNutra wheat gluten was used at that plant. The new
concern is over the possibility of cross-contamination. Menu Foods has received
a report from a customer and has received study results, both of which
indicate cross-contamination. As a result, Menu advises the public:- Additional
items in the United States and Canada have been added to the recall list
as well.
The recall dates of those
products previously recalled have been modified to include all dates during the
period that ChemNutra wheat gluten was used in the applicable Menu plant.
All of these products, including the expanded dates, have previously been
withdrawn from the market and should already be off the retailer shelves. Menu estimates that
this additional recall represents less than 5% of the products that have
already been recalled or withdrawn. An updated list of the
recalled products, including this addition, is available at the Menu Foods
website at http://www.menufoods.com.
