Taste Of The Wild Recall

Diamond Company that makes Taste of the Wild pet food has a recall because of salmonella risk. Figured I would post this in case anyone else feeds their pets this brand. I'll have to go on a hunt for some that isn't recalled tomorrow since that is all Maggie eats. Wish me luck. The package codes recalled are at this link.

I will pass this on to friends who may use this brand.

I hope you find a replacement food for Maggie, hon!

I've been feeding it to my dog for the past few weeks - month? I tossed the bag a long time ago.

So far we haven't died. Hmmm....

I own a retail store in this business. The information ravenwoodglass posted a link to is accurate. The recall is confined to two of the three lines in Diamond's plant.

Thanks Peter I was trying to find the other brands, as NC was listed in the distribution.

What they said on our news tonight was that humans were getting sick from handling the food. I guess they weren't washing thier hands well after?

Still, wouldn't want to feed it to your pet.

Yup, I agree. I religiously wash my hands after feeding the Rudder Girl. But would not want her to eat any "tainted" food of whatever.

Since I dump my dog food in a can (and toss the bag) I'm going to have to clean the can. Sounds like soap and water should do it, let it dry in the sun...maybe a bleach rinse (sanitizer). Open Original Shared Link

No one has symptoms. I guess I should alert the neighbors since their dog jumped the fence, came in the house, and ate bowls of the food.

Ugh. At least I'm at the bottom of the can... Would you believe it's the first time I bought it???

Geez, I'm going to have to mop. The whole first floor is his food mat.

Yes, I'm saying bad words.....

Procter & Gamble have their own manufacturing facilities and do not use contractors to make kibble.

We just finished off a bag and opened a new one last night. I got realy scared when I saw this post! :o

We lost a wonderful dog to the tainted with melamine food a few years ago. :angry:

I checked both bags and they are safe. :D

Doesn't Costco sell Taste of the Wild? I can't remember if it's labeled under another name though.

Some Kirkland Signature products are made by Diamond Pet Foods, but I do not believe the products are the same as TOTW. I don't have details, and the link I provided does not mention brands that Pet Valu does not sell.

It's definitely not Kirkland branded and I've only seen it at the Costco's here in CA. I looked it up and it's called "Nature's Domain" and reading Jess's link and it looks like it is TOTW: Open Original Shared Link

And I was going tomorrow to buy a bag!

FYI, according to Pet Club here in Tucson the affected facility was in the Carolina's - the food this Pet Club sells comes from CA and wasn't part of the recall.

So, that explains why we aren't dead (since the dog spreads it all over the house and I'd tossed the bag).

Only the plant in Gaston, SC, was affected, and only two production lines in that plant.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

      Thank you! What do you recommend in the next 7 weeks until I see my Doctor?  Just start my Gluten free diet?
    • Scott Adams
      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:    
    • Scott Adams
      So if the normal range for your tests is below 15.0 U/mL, and your results are 120.9 U/mL HIGH, it definitely looks like you could have celiac disease. Your doctor may want to schedule an endoscopy to confirm this, but with such high results it is also possible that the diagnosis might be made on your blood test results alone (more info on that is below). This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.  In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:
