This is the recall the OP was referring to.

Aflatoxin is a poison produced by the mold Aspergillus flavus, which can grow on corn and other grains used as ingredients in pet food. At high levels, aflatoxin can cause illness and death in pets.

Made in midwest USA have a plant not too far from me. Nunn Milling has been in business since early 1900's I think.
Hope none of our furry friends were affected.

Just something to also consider, Midwest Foods also makes the Earthborn and Earthborn Holistic brands. Might be a good idea to find something else to feed, at least until Midwest can sort and resolve this issue.

Years ago I delivered corn to a dog food mfg facility. They were pretty particular about quality. They always did an aflatoxin test on each truckload.

Having said that “plugging a load” was a high art form. “Plugging” refers to loading in a manner that hides lesser corn in a load of good corn. Whether deliberate or not, the person doing the probing and testing is to be blamed for it being accepted. I would imagine there are test done later in the process as well.

I remember aspergillus from a show on Animal Planet called Monsters Inside Me. Nasty, nasty shit. Not quite as frightening as the brain-eating amoeba Eek , but still bad.

Was at Rural King this morning and they were rolling two pallets of Sportmix out of the dog food aisle.
