THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
I’m Lways weary about raw food mass produced. Thank you for the heads up friend and a lovely day to you!
Same here. They have enough trouble keeping our food chain clean, so carryover to the pet foods is going be a concern. I'm glad for the recalls, but the frequency of them is a bit alarming.
Hope you're having a great day, too!
Good grief! There are more recalls on pet food than people food! Thank goodness our dogs food wasn’t included. Her food has never been recalled, but everytime I see that there’s another recall, I’m afraid hers will be there. Thanks for working to keep us up-to-date on the recalls. It’s hard to keep up with sometimes!
I know right!?! I'm glad they report and follow up on suspicious batches, but damn, it does make you wonder what they don't catch... critters AND people.
Seems like these are happening all the more frequently!
It does seem to be trending in that direction nationally. Folks might hear about one or two in their area. The number of e-mails I've been getting on these, however, tends to show the recalls are happening in more areas. Collectively, there has been an increase.
There seem to be rather a lot of recalls of late! Its not very comforting.
Agreed. It makes choosing trusted products very difficult.
