I even checked out our Celebcorp brand by email as it is very misleading on their website. They claim it's all made in Canada but on the package on the very back it says "imported into Canada by" so I sent them an email, and to my surprise they are importing their chicken from China as well but it's not mentioned on the package or on the website.

The email went on to say that they have teams of inspector's that are always in the plant doing inspections, and that the employee's feed the treats to their own pets. I don't know how much of that is true, but I thought other's should know about the cautions and recalls that are going on at the moment.

?? - I don't understand??. I just went to the Blue Buffalo website: www.bluebuffalo.com and they state that their dog food is made in the USA. I have some Blue Buffalo treats a neighbor gave our dog at Christmas and the package says it is made in the USA(the dog hasn't been sick after eating this). I searched on "blue buffalo dog food recalls" and found none.
Could this recall be a mistake or a hoax?
