Lea-Way Farms Inc., doing business as Blue Ridge Beef, is recalling 1,203 cases of Puppy Mix for dogs, Kitten Grind for cats, and Kitten Mix for cats. The recall was initiated after the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services found that products tested positive for Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes. These raw pet foods were sold in 2lb tubes across 16 states, and no illnesses have been reported to date. Consumers should stop using these products and return them for a refund or dispose of them safely.
Salmonella and Listeria can cause serious illness in pets and can also be transmitted to humans who handle the contaminated food or surfaces. These pathogens can lead to symptoms ranging from nausea and diarrhea to more severe infections, especially in young, elderly, or immunocompromised individuals and pets.
