It is pretty scary that nobody thought earlier to include pet products in the general advisory by the FDA to discard and not eat any products containing peanut butter paste.
ReplyDeleteGee... that's a really cute dog
ReplyDeleteIs that dog looking for peanut butter?
ReplyDeleteProduct recalls include some pet food products that contain peanut paste that was made by PCA. While the risk of animals contracting salmonellosis is minimal, there is risk to humans from handling these products. It is important for people to wash their hands--and make sure children wash their hands--before and, especially, after feeding treats to pets. Further information for consumers is located in the Frequently Asked Questions section located on this web site. The pet food products are also included in the searchable data base of recalled products, which can be found at http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/peanutbutterrecall/index.cfm.
ReplyDeleteOur dog likes a treat with peanut butter made by a local company. I stopped giving them to him and wrote the company to find out where their peanut butter came from, which luckily is organic and from Canada. That is the only peanut butter based treat he is allowed to have.
