"Natural Balance has announced that it is recalling it’s Natural Balance Eatables for Dogs due to a supplier’s recall. The affected formulas include 15oz cans of: Irish Stew, Hobo Chili, Chinese Take-Out and Southern Style Dumplin’s with Gravy. The supplier, Castleberry Foods, found one instance of botulism in improperly sealed cans."

Well good to know they are on top of it........one instance and it gets reported. If that were the case last time, a lot of BS could have been avoided

[ToscasMom]

Well apparently the only people they notified were their newsletter recipients and at the time of the report, their website was silent. I imagine that would be corrected now.

It seems that Cassleberry makes Human food too, and there's a botulism recall there too

Cans of chili sauce made at the Castleberry's plant were found in the homes of an Indiana couple and two children in Texas who had been hospitalized with botulism. All four are expected to survive.

Well I'm glad you didn't eat it. That's the important thing. Don't throw the can away though. You should really turn it in to your health department.
