More than 100 pets died, over 200 sickened from recalled pet food, FDA says
Earlier this month, the company expanded its recall "out of an abundance of caution" to include all pet food products containing corn that were manufactured in the company’s Oklahoma manufacturing plant and have an expiration date on or before July 9, 2022. Overall, this recall includes 19 products that "may still be on store shelves, online, or in pet owners’ homes," according to the FDA.
In December, Midwestern initially issued a recall of nine different lots of Sportmix dry cat and dog food following reports that at least 28 dogs died and eight were ill after consuming the recalled pet food.
By conducting product tests, the Missouri Department of Agriculture discovered "very high levels" of the toxin in multiple samples at the company's Oklahoma plant. However, not all of these cases have been officially confirmed as aflatoxin poisoning, the FDA said.
