Natures Menu recalls raw product

Raw pet food manufacturer Natures Menu has recalled one batch of its Country Hunter 80% Farm Reared Turkey with Wholesome Fruit and Veg 1kg frozen raw food because the product contains salmonella, which could cause food poisoning in humans.

The raw pet food manufacturer said the Food Standards Agency picked up on this in Norway and asked Natures Menu to ‘check with retailers if they have stock from this batch as a matter of precaution’.

Craig Taylor, managing director of Natures Menu, said the company had delivered thousands of packs since September and it was unlikely the product  was still in stores as it had a use by date of December 13, ‘but we are supporting the FSA and their request as you would expect’.

The recalled product carries the batch code 13122017.

I don't know about anyone else, but I handle raw pet food the same as raw meat for human consumption.

I think all of us here do. Even if it weren't raw, I'd be careful with it as many salmonella and listeria recalls of kibble that there have been.
