The recall follows routine testing by the FDA, which detected Salmonella in one composite sample from the lot. The product was distributed directly to consumers across the U.S. and to select retailers in Massachusetts, California, South Carolina, North Carolina, Wisconsin, and New York, as well as through online sales. No illnesses linked to the recalled lot have been reported as of the announcement, though third-party confirmatory testing is pending.
Albright’s emphasized that the recall is a precautionary measure to maintain safety and transparency as they continue evaluations. Salmonella can cause illness in pets, leading to symptoms such as lethargy, diarrhea, fever, and abdominal pain. It can also pose risks to humans, particularly young children, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals, causing nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps.
Consumers are urged not to feed the affected product to pets and to dispose of any unused portions in a manner that prevents access by children and wildlife. For refunds, customers should email a receipt and product photographs to [email protected]. Questions can also be directed to the company via the same email or at 866-729-4738. The recall is being conducted with FDA oversight.
