A complete list of the recalled products along with product codes, descriptions and production dates was available from the Menu Foods Web site,
http://www.menufoods.com/recall/product_...
The pet food linked to the deaths of 16 animals has shown no signs of contamination, the manufacturer says, and the company cannot explain why the cats and dog developed acute kidney failure and died.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Paul Henderson, the chief executive and president of Menu Foods, said Wednesday the company was looking at a single ingredient. He wouldn't identify it, but the Food and Drug Administration has said the investigation was focusing on wheat gluten.
"Our hypothesis is that it is that ingredient that in fact represents the highest probability as to the cause," Henderson said. "But we have been unable to prove that through scientific information."
The animal deaths have led to the recall of 60 million cans and pouches of pet food sold throughout North America under 95 brand names.

You know howYahoo features certain news articles? Go to Yahoo News and they have some very very good information regarding the entire situation. I havent been keeping tract myself as mylittle dog does not eat any of the 95 brands effected. ALso, It is really scary to find out that all those brands are really the same stuff -- hmmmmmmmmm good luck -k-

Here's the press release and list for you.

If you're using any of these foods, make sure you stop immediately and call your vet. I think they're all the "cuts in gravy" wet food type, so if you only use dry foods it should be fine, but check anyway to be safe. It's a serious and alarming recall.
