Mollie, there is also a related recall of Companion brand canned dog food, sold at Giant, Martin’s and Stop & Shop supermarkets. That notice has not yet made it to FDA, but it is posted on the supermarkets’ recall pages. Same expiration code, same can size, same explanation. I posted it on my FB page and also here: https://efoodalert.wordpress.com/2017/02/08/recalls-and-alerts-february-7-8-2017/
I have no idea who the manufacturer is, as these are private label products.
