North American Nutrition Companies Inc. is recalling 1,433 bags of various animal feed products, including beef cattle, dairy cow, and swine feeds. These products may contain protein derived from mammalian tissue, which is strictly prohibited in feed for ruminant animals like cows. Additionally, labels for non-ruminant feeds (like pig feed) are missing required cautionary statements regarding Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). Consumers should check their bags of Vigortone, Sunglo, and Akey brand products to see if they are part of this recall and contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
The inclusion of mammalian protein in ruminant feed is a safety violation designed to prevent the spread of BSE (commonly known as 'mad cow disease'). Additionally, missing warning labels on non-ruminant feed could lead to the accidental feeding of these materials to cattle or other ruminants, posing a risk to animal health and the safety of the food supply chain.
Return to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact the manufacturer for further instructions
