Eight lots test positive for multiple harmful pathogens; FDA urges pet owners to discard affected products
The FDA is urging pet owners not to feed eight lots of Raaw Energy dog food after unopened samples tested positive for Listeria, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and E. coli O157.
The contaminated products were sold frozen in 2‑lb and 5‑lb plastic tubes and distributed nationwide.
Affected Products and Date Codes
The following Raaw Energy products tested positive for pathogenic bacteria:
– Chicken Medley
– Salmon
– Beef Chicken Medley
– Beef Turkey Medley
– Beef Chicken Tripe Medley
