Kroger Asks Customers in North Texas and North Louisiana to Check for Recalled Pet Food
DALLAS, Nov. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Kroger is asking customers in the
Dallas/Fort Worth area, east Texas, and Shreveport and Alexandria, La., to
check the pet food they have at home for specific packages of Pet Pride pet
food. These products were included in a September recall due to potential
contamination with Salmonella Schwarzengrund.
The three products listed below were included in the Mars Petcare US
recall on Sept. 12, 2008. Customers should look for these items:
Pet Pride Indoor Cat Food, 3.5-lb. Best by JUL 29 09 or earlier dates
Pet Pride Indoor Cat Food, 18-lb. Best by JUL 29 09 or earlier dates
Pet Pride Weight Management Dog Food, 17.6-lb. Best by JUL 29 09 or
earlier dates
For these three recalled products, the number 17 is found under the "best-
by" date followed by five other numbers that vary. The number 17 specifies the
plant where the recalled products were made.
If customers have any of these products, they should return the packages
to a store for a full refund or replacement.
Salmonella may cause illnesses in dogs and cats and in people who come in
contact with the pet food. Healthy people potentially infected with Salmonella
may show signs of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever.
Pets may be lethargic and have diarrhea, fever and vomiting. For tips on safe
pet food handling, visit www.fda.gov/cvm/CVM_Updates/foodbornetips.htm.
