RECALL ALERT: Cesar Classics Filet Mignon Dog Food

Mars Petcare is voluntarily recalling some Cesar Classics Filet Mignon wet dog food products because small pieces of plastic that may have entered the food during the production process could be a choking hazard.

“While a small number of consumers have reported finding the plastic pieces, we have not received any reports of injury or illness associated with the affected product,” Mars Petcare said in a notice of the recall.

A limited number of both individual and variety packs of Cesar Classics Filet Mignon dog food has been recalled.

The individual products have a best before date (“BB”) between 08/04/2018 and 08/05/2018 printed on the side, and a lot code below it that begins with 631FKKC or 631GKKC.

The recalled variety packs have the following lot codes: 632D14JC, 633B24JC, 634A14JC, 634A24JC, 634B14JC, 634B24JC, 634E14JC, 635A24JC, 635B14JC, 636D24JC and 636E14JC.

If you purchased the recalled product, do not feed it to your pet. Discard it or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund or exchange.

RECALL ALERT: Pedigree Expands Dry Dog Food Recall

Mars Petcare US announced it is expanding its voluntary recall of some bags of Pedigree Adult Complete Nutrition dry dog food because they may contain small metal fragments.

According to the original recall notice Aug. 27, the fragments may have entered bags during the production process at a manufacturing facility. The facility has temporarily been shut down.

“While the small metal fragments are not embedded in the food itself, [they] may present a risk of injury if consumed,” Mars Petcare stated.

The initial recall was for only 22 bags sold at Dollar General stores in four states, but it has now been extended to include 55-pound bags sold at Sam’s Club locations in Indiana, Michigan and Ohio.

“Some of the affected production lot was originally said to be held in inventory but was instead released to consumers, which has necessitated the expansion of the recall,” Mars Petcare said in a press release yesterday. “We are confident no other packages or retailers are affected by this recall.”

If you bought one of the recalled products, throw it away or return it to the retailer for a full refund or exchange.

If you have questions about the recall, visit pedigree.com/update or call 800-305-5206 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. CST.
