TFP Nutrition is expanding their voluntary recall from October to include all the dry dog, dry cat, and catfish food products that were manufactured in their Nacogdoches, Texas, facility.
The expanded voluntary recall was announced by the company and published by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on November 16, Thursday.
According to the FDA, the expansion of the voluntary recall came due to the potential Salmonella contamination of these production codes.
TFP Nutrition has apologized for any potential issues these products may have caused. They added that they are currently working directly with retailers to remove the recalled products from their supply chain.
To find out if you’ve purchased any of the recalled products, please use this example graphic and the “MFG From” column found below. The XXXXX is the timestamp when the bag was packaged.

It’s unfortunate that many of the dog foods had such late recall dates. My dog suffered unnecessarily for 2 months. I took him to the vets. I did change his food and he was placed on anti-biotics. My other dog stayed on the kibble for an additional two months. I finally saw a tiny blurb on the news, took her off the kibble, and tossed the kibble. In addition to the two dogs, I also contracted salmonella. Thank you so much to the manufacture for the limited information!
