Summary

Mars Petcare USA has recalled approximately 54,255 cases of CESAR Classics Filet Mignon Flavor wet dog food because the finished product may contain small pieces of white plastic. The recall includes 100 g (3.5 oz) plastic trays sold in 24-count or 30-count cases distributed nationwide to retail stores and government facilities.
