| Interesting List....... Call me paranoid or crazy but I have a problem with the word "Menu Foods" since the recall.........thought some of you might want to know where our 'high end' foods are made I feed Evanger's wet and Canidae dry. Blue Buffalo: Canned foods made by American > > Nutrition in Utah. Dry foods made at CJ Foods in Kansas. Breeder's Choice: Canned diets made at Menu Foods, but have not been recalled. Canidae: Canned food packed by Evangers. Kibble made at Pied Piper in Texas. Canine Caviar: Canned food made by American Nutrition in Utah. Kibble made by Pied Piper in Texas. Canned diets are 100% meat, contain no grains. Castor & Pollux: Canned diets made by Menu Foods but have not been recalled. Eagle Pack: Canned diets made at Menu Foods but have not been recalled and do not contain Wheat Gluten. Dry diets made at their own plant in Mishawaka, IN. Evangers: They have their own cannery. Go! Natural (Petcurean): Canned diets made at Menu Foods in Canada but have not been recalled. Merrick: Has their own plant for all products. Natura (Healthwise, California Naturals, Innova): Canned diets made at the South Dakota Menu Foods Plant but have not been recalled. Dry diets are made at their own plant. Natural Balance: Canned diets made at American Nutrition in Utah. Dry diets are made in Diamond Plant in Sacramento, CA. Nature's Variety: Canned diets made at Menu Foods but have not been recalled. The canned diets contain not grains. Kibble is made at Pied Piper in Texas. Raw diets are made in an in house plant in Lincoln, Ne. Pet Promise: Purina Brand ... canned and kibble made in their plants. Solid Gold: It is unknown where canned diets were made. Kibble is made in the Diamond Plant in Sacramento, CA. Timberwolf Organics: Just released one canned diet and working on additions, it is unsure where this is made, but due to the size of Menu Foods I highly doubt it is being done there. Kibble was at one point being co-packed somewhere in PA but I've heard rumors that it is now being made out of the Diamond Plant. I cannot confirm this and the company will not give out information. Wellness/Old Mother Hubbard: Canned diets made at Menu Foods but have not been recalled. Wysong: Canned diets made at Menu Foods but have not been recalled. Most of their line of cans are grain free.

| What canned foods are contaminated? Im yet to know the list? I havent read everything but is there a list of particiuar dog foods? Or do they really know all the labels yet? I had a puppy go home who is really small, and I didnt want him on just dry kibble for awhile. I wanted him offered canned too. Its always just what I feel comfortable with until they adjust to a new home. I have been worried about the recall. So I asked them to feed the HUMAN baby food, chicken and rice instead of my usual canned. |

| Thanks for posting this, I think the more information on the origination of the foods that we can get will help us to make more informed choices for our little chick-a-dees. May I ask where you got this list? I surf the net alot at work, in lieu of working (hahaha), and I've not found this. Since my little ones were on the Iams recalled food but so far are fine, and have had their blood chemistry panel tested, I have been searching for better foods for them. This whole thing has opened my eyes as to how important it is to research what we are purchasing. So please pass along any more info as to the plants these foods come from that you know. |

| I agree. I am just very paranoid and angry over all this. I haven't been much on here lately but have been emailing petfood companies and pestering them with questions. Some have appaled me and some have been very nice.

| Solid Gold: It is unknown where canned diets were made. Kibble is made in the Diamond Plant in Sacramento, CA.??? Diamond had a recall too? Is this the same plant? My daughter was feeding her Westie Diamond and no longer does. I was considering the Solid Gold .... Toto is presently on Nutro Natural Choice Lite for her kibble and loves it but I am not comfortable with it since the recall. I don't know what to do!!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Scary. I feed Cali and Pixie Wellness canned I had no idea it was made by Menu foods. Now I am worried that the recall may expand to that too,

It would have never crossed my mind. Kinda makes me sick to my stomach to even think that this 'great' food is being made where nasty by products and other crap are being used to make other brands. Makes you wonder if the label is even legit

Some people would say it's a bad thing because of a past recall...........I personally don't know what to think anymore.
