The recent warning by the Federal and Drug Administration concerns the pet food that contains harmful ingredients responsible for deaths of more than 100 pets, primarily cats and dogs. The on-site inspection found that at the point of manufacturing aflatoxin levels were extremely high. This toxin is created by mold and grows on certain grains. Inspection of other sites found similar issues. The company was found to be non-compliant with federal regulations and laws governing food production.
Key Takeaways:
- An inspection of a manufacturing plant in Oklahoma showed that the SportMiX High Energy Dog food had high levels of aflatoxin.
- Aflatoxin is produced by mold and can grow on grains that are typically used in pet foods. Aflatoxin causes illnesses and sometimes death in pets.
- In January, Midwestern Pet Foods recalled those products and all products that contained corn which were made at the Chickasha plant.
“The FDA issued a public warning on Tuesday about contaminated pet food sold by Midwestern Pet Foods, which could be linked with more than 220 illnesses and 130 deaths among dogs and cats.”
