I’m writing to inform you that today we are voluntarily recalling five lots of our Verve, Zeal and Thrive products, which were produced between August and November 2012 and sold nationwide in the US and Canada via retail stores, mail order and online after August 2012. We are taking this precautionary action after learning that one of our raw ingredients suppliers has recalled a batch of human-grade parsley that has the potential to contain Salmonella. The batch of parsley was shipped to us in 2012 and used in the five lots of finished Honest Kitchen products. We’ve included specific details about which lots are being recalled, directions on how you can obtain a full refund for the affected lots, and information on the potential effects of Salmonella in our official recall press release.
the culprit in the recall was actually parsley
There are so many ironies in Lucy's courageous and costly recent decision to recall a few lots of The Honest Kitchen food because of possible contamination. One thinks of a pet food recall as being very bad publicity for a company, and one that might undermine consumer confidence in their products -- but in the case of this recall that Lucy initiated, it seems to have had the opposite effect. On websites posting news of the recall, I saw comments from people praising Lucy Postins for her proactive caution in instituting the recall -- and appreciation of her desire for transparency and openness. It isn't called The Honest Kitchen for nothing!
