    RECALL HISTORY // THE HONEST KITCHEN

    1 FDA Recall On Record

    FEB 21, 2013
    SALMONELLA

    Pet food products Matched by brand. The notice lists the exact products and lots.

    None in the last three years. Older events stay on the record. See the recall log

    SAME LINE

    Other Flavors

    Grain-Free Chicken 29.5% Grain-Free Beef 29.5% Grain-Free Turkey 29.5% Grain-Free Chicken 30.1%

    Protein on a dry matter basis, read the same way.

    One honest caveat. These figures are what a label will tell us: protein, starch, the top of the ingredient list, flagged additives and the brand’s recall record. They cannot tell you whether your dog will do well on this food. Allergies, gut sensitivity, age and health conditions all matter more than any of it, and none of them are printed on a bag. If your dog is thriving on a food whose figures read lower than this one, that is not a mistake, and we would not switch on our say-so.
