Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Menu Foods Midwest Corp is recalling 90,125,610 units of various cat and dog foods under brands including America's Choice, Best Choice, Special Kitty, and many others. These products may have been cross-contaminated with ChemNutra wheat gluten, which was used in the manufacturing plants during the same production period. Consumers should check their pet food cans and pouches for the specific brands and date codes listed and return any affected items to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

The recalled pet foods may contain cross-contaminated wheat gluten, which can lead to severe illness or kidney failure in pets. The manufacturer initiated this recall after receiving a report from a customer and obtaining study results that confirmed the presence of contamination.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your pet food packaging for the brand name, product flavor, and container size (e.g., 'America's Choice Sliced Chicken 3 oz can' or 'Truly Beef Cuts in Gravy 624 gm can').
  2. Verify the UPC barcode on the product. Examples of affected UPCs include 5480759117 for America's Choice Chicken, 7003836329 for Best Choice Beef, and 7874264598 for Special Kitty Beef.
  3. Check the 'Best By' or Date Codes printed on the container. Most affected cat foods have dates between December 2009 and March 2010, while some dog foods range from November 2008 to March 2010.
  4. Immediately stop feeding the affected product to your pets if the details match the recall list.
  5. Return any unused portions of the recalled food to the store where you purchased it for a full refund.
  6. Monitor your pet for signs of illness such as loss of appetite, vomiting, or increased thirst, and contact a veterinarian immediately if symptoms occur.
  7. For further information or questions, contact Menu Foods Midwest Corp or call the FDA's consumer complaint coordinators at the agency's hotline.
