Nel Liquorman, Health Editor TheDogPress 01|03|10 2010 was a bad year for dog food manufacturers. While
most owners know about the Blue Buffalo recall, the puzzle of contaminated
ingredients is intriguing. From
Alpo and Authority to Royal Canine and Iams, trusted names made the Pet Food
Recalls list. While salmonella is a common food contaminant, it leads
to speculation regarding sourcing of ingredients. Chinese melamine
was the culprit in 2007 and in 2009 Menu Foods, makers of Nutro, settled a
$24 million dollar lawsuit over the largest pet food recall in history. QUICK SEARCH: To quickly find a recalled pet food by name
