FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Meta, MO -- April 26, 2007 -- Because of the
canned pet food recall initiated today by American Nutrition Inc.,
Diamond Pet Foods has announced it is withdrawing a limited number of
canned products manufactured by American Nutrition. This action is
limited to three specific canned products: Diamond Lamb & Rice Formula
for Dogs 13 oz. cans, Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul Kitten
Formula 5.5 oz. cans, and Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul Puppy
Formula 13 oz. cans.
Diamond Pet Foods is taking this voluntary action after learning the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed rice protein concentrate
used by American Nutrition contained melamine, a substance not approved
for use in food.
No other Diamond brand or Chicken Soup brand canned or dry pet food
formulas are affected by the American Nutrition recall.
Diamond Pet Foods has not received any indication of quality or safety
issues, including pet illness, with the three withdrawn products.
However, because American Nutrition informed the company that these
three specific products may include rice protein concentrate, Diamond
Pet Foods felt this action was necessary for the protection of its
customers and their pets.
It should be noted that the products being withdrawn were not formulated
or labeled to contain rice protein concentrate. While the FDA is
investigating this, current information indicates this error is a result
of a manufacturing deviation by American Nutrition.
