A Hill’s Science Diet Account Manager who subscribes to TruthaboutPetFood.com newsletter mistakenly responded to my email (me) I sent out instead of forwarding it to I suspect someone internal (received tonight). Their email said…

“I remember we talked about this now. Do we have an official response?”

At the time of this posting, neither the FDA nor Hill's have made a statement giving the reason for the recall.

Their letter to retailers

(( As much as this surprises me - I've no knowledge of Fromm EVER having a recall - it does not surprise me that it is Fromm Family Foods themselves that found a problem and issued a recall to correct it. They shouldn't make mistakes, but at least when they do *they* are the ones to announce it. ))

This is interesting Al.........Purina's and Fromm's recall are for vitamins. Currently most manufacturers obtain vitamin packets that come from China, so even if the food is made here the vitamins may not. This is why Acana is switching over their formulas so no packs are needed, and Fromm is switching over to European sources. Problem is Vitamin K I do believe(need to check) China is the only synthetic source, and synthetic is what the majority off all dog food's use, otherwise it needs to come from a food source. As always Al thank you for posting the recalls, it is very much appreciated.
