Menu Foods Expanded Recall Includes Three Nutro Wet Canned Cat Food Products Menu Foods has announced an expansion of the pet food recall to include certain products that do not contain ChemNutra wheat gluten, but that were manufactured at Menu Foods' facilities during the period in which ChemNutra wheat gluten was being used. Menu Foods has expressed concerns of possible cross-contamination of certain products that were processed during the same timeframe as contaminated products. Three Nutro wet canned cat foods are included in this expanded recall even though these products do not contain wheat gluten or rice protein concentrate. Nutro dry pet foods are not manufactured by Menu Foods and are not impacted by this recall. >From the beginning of these recalls through May 2, 2007, Nutro has received no consumer complaints regarding the products listed below. While Menu Foods' recall affects only certain production dates of these foods, in order to avoid customer confusion, Nutro is asking that all of the products listed below, regardless of date, be removed from store shelves and suggests that pet owners stop feeding these products to their pets. The newly added products from Nutro include the following 3 oz canned wet cat foods: Product Name Size UPC Code Nutro Max Cat Gourmet Classics Kitten Chicken & Oceanfish 3 oz. 79105 38101 7 Nutro Natural Choice Complete Care Kitten Tuna & Chicken 3 oz. 79105 35204 8 Nutro Natural Choice Complete Care Kitten Beef & Chicken 3 oz. 79105 35203 1 A number of samples of these foods produced both during and after the time period referenced by Menu Foods (December 6, 2006 to January 24, 2007) were sent to an independent laboratory for analysis and no melamine was detected in any of these samples. However, out of an abundance of caution, Nutro is voluntarily participating in the recall of these three products.

We want to assure our customers that American Nutrition does not manufacture anything for Nutro Products and that Nutro does not obtain rice protein concentrate from Wilbur-Ellis. None of Nutro's pet foods are connected with these latest recalls. Among the companies announcing recalls yesterday, April 26, was Natural Balance Pet Foods, Inc.
