Salmonella from Pet Food- How to Avoid Infection
It seems that every week a new pet food recall is reported due to suspected contamination. Even beyond the large scale pet food recall in 2007 when pet food was recalled due to the presence of melamine, pet food recalls have occurred due to contamination with bacteria like E. coli or Salmonella, or aflatoxins (fungal toxins). In just the month of May 2011, four different pet food companies recalled pig ears due to concerns of salmonella contamination.
