Recall list expands again! More added Fri. 4/27

Add Harmony Farms to the recall:

All Harmony Farms canned dog foods
All Harmony Farms canned cat foods
All Harmony Farms Health Bar biscuits

Sounds like anyone that uses American Nutrition, Inc. as a manufacturer will/should be recalling their canned food because ANI was supposedly adding rice protein concentrate to foods without authorization.

I recommend that everyone check Itchmo several times a day. The news media seems to have lost interest in keeping everyone up to date.

How do we find out which pet food brands use ANI for their wet foods or even their dry foods?

Answer to your question, unfortunately, when they get recalled.

Below is what I found on ANI's site, like I said above when they get recalled seems to run true in this companies case.

The corporate headquarters for American Nutrition is in Ogden, where 50% of the company tonnage is produced. Southwest Pet (a Phoenix subsidiary) produces 20% and Northwest Pet (a Woodland, Washington subsidiary) produces 30%. Products include contract manufacturing of pet foods, private label pet foods, as well as the formulation, preparation, packaging, and shipping of American Nutrition’s own brands. ANI also produces premium, biodegradable cat litter.

This from Blue Buffalo:

Due to a product-tampering incident, I regret to inform you that we are
recalling all BLUE dog can products, Spa Select cat can products and BLUE
Health Bars effective immediately. It is extremely difficult for us to make
this announcement as we spoke with many of you last week, before this
tampering incident was known, and assured you that only one production run
of Spa Select kitten dry food was unfit for consumption.

The product tampering came to our attention when American Nutrition, Inc.
(ANI), the manufacturer of our canned dog and cat foods and biscuits,
informed us that they had been adding rice protein concentrate to our canned
formulas without our knowledge or approval. Apparently this has been going
on for some time, and ANI only chose to inform us when the FDA began an
investigation of their rice protein concentrate supplies.

While this activity by ANI is in itself unlawful, the situation is further
complicated by the fact that ANI has been receiving rice protein concentrate
contaminated with melamine from Wilbur-Ellis.

So while no BLUE or Spa Select canned product has tested positive for the
presence of the melamine, and there have been no reported illnesses from our
canned foods, we have lost all confidence in the honesty and integrity of
ANI, and the products that they manufacture.

For this reason, we have decided to remove all of our canned foods and
biscuits from the retail market. While this may seem to some as a major
over-reaction, the Blue Buffalo Company was founded on the principle of
providing the highest quality and most nutritious pet foods available to our
pet parents. Anything less is not acceptable.

The obvious question is how could Blue Buffalo not know that ANI was
altering the formulas by putting in an ingredient such as rice protein
concentrate. The simple answer is we trusted ANI as a partner. They
deliberately deceived us and betrayed our trust.

In the end, it all comes down to integrity. ANI has not been honest with us
or with pet parents who trust BLUE, so we are going to temporarily stop the
production and sale of all cans and biscuits until we can provide you with
products that are exactly what we say they are.
