Foodynamics is recalling specific lots of Raw Dog Barkery, BellePepper Cats, Kanu Pets, and What’s In the Bowl brand freeze-dried pet treats due to salmonella contamination.
Raw Bistro Pet Fare is recalling two product sizes of its frozen beef dog food for the same reason.
Recalled products were shipped to retailers and consumers in Wisconsin, New York, Florida, California, Colorado, Illinois, and Minnesota.
Salmonella can cause lethargy, diarrhea, fever, and vomiting in pets. Infected pets can also transmit the bacteria to humans.
Humans can experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and fever from salmonella infection.
Why this matters: Salmonella contamination in pet food can lead to severe illness in both animals and humans. It’s crucial to identify and dispose of affected products promptly to prevent the spread of infection.
Food safety is paramount, and recalls like these highlight the importance of vigilant testing and quality control in the pet food industry. Salmonella is a bacterium that can cause significant health problems, especially in vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems.
