A dog food maker’s second mold-made poison recall follows its June salmonella recall

Sunshine Mills dog food safety problems continued this week with a recall of nine lots of chicken and brown rice food sold under six brands because they might have too much aflatoxin.

If a Sunshine Mills recall sounds familiar, that might be because the company yanked four brands of dog food in June after salmonella was found by a state agricultural department. If a Sunshine Mills recall for aflatoxin content sounds familiar, that’s probably because the company pulled 20 brands in October 2020 for that same reason.’

Aflatoxins come from fungi that, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, “usually infect cereal crops including wheat, walnut, corn, cotton, peanuts and tree nuts ... and can lead to serious threats to human and animal health...”

This time, the foods affected, all of which have a best by date of Feb. 11, 2022, are:
