Pet Food Recall Expands to Include Dog Biscuits By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Filed at 1:44 p.m. ET
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The recall of pet foods and treats contaminated with an
industrial chemical expanded Thursday to include dog biscuits made by an
Alabama company.
The Food and Drug Administration said Sunshine Mills Inc. is recalling dog
biscuits made with imported Chinese wheat gluten. Testing has revealed the
wheat gluten, a protein source, was contaminated with melamine, used to make
plastics and other industrial products.
Also Thursday, Menu Foods, a major manufacturer of brand- and private-label
wet pet foods expanded its original recall to include a broader range of dates,
the FDA said. Menu Foods was the first of at least six companies to recall pet
foods and treats made with the contaminated ingredient.
The FDA knows of no other pet product companies planning recalls, agency
officials told reporters.
Sunshine, of Red Bay, Ala., sells pet foods and treats under its own brands
as well as private labels sold by grocery, mass merchant and dollar stores,
according to its Web site. A list of recalled products was not immediately
available.
