Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Darling National LLC has recalled approximately 1,366,128 pounds of Darling's 85% Blood Meal because it was cross-contaminated with prohibited bovine meat and bone meal. The affected product was manufactured on shared equipment and lacks the required safety warning stating it should not be fed to ruminant animals like cows or sheep. This bulk feed product was distributed in totes and 1-ton bags primarily to brokers and direct customers in multiple states including Wisconsin, Texas, Nebraska, Tennessee, Colorado, and Minnesota.

Risk

The product contains prohibited bovine meat and bone meal which can pose a risk of spreading Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) if fed to ruminants. Because the product lacks the mandatory cautionary statement, it may be accidentally used in feed for cattle, sheep, or goats.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have 'Bulk Darling's 85% Blood Meal, Flash Dried' by checking the bulk tag; it should state it was 'Manufactured By Darling International, Inc., Irving, TX.'
  2. Confirm if your product was received in totes or 1-ton bags between the recall initiation date of January 12, 2007, and the termination date of November 29, 2007.
  3. Immediately stop using this blood meal for any ruminant animal feed (such as feed for cattle, sheep, or goats).
  4. Return the product to the place of purchase for a refund or contact Darling National LLC at their Omaha, Nebraska facility (3505 S 34th St, Omaha, NE 68105) for further instructions on disposal or return.
  5. For additional questions, contact the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine at 1-240-402-7002.
