Consumers who have any of these products or any foods made with these products should throw them away immediately. The FDA recommends double-bagging the cans in plastic bags that are tightly closed then place in a trash receptacle for non-recyclable trash outside of the home. Additional instructions for safe disposal can be found at .
The previous recall and the known illnesses were linked to production dates of April 30, 2009 to May 22, 2009; the firm has now extended the recall to include all products listed regardless of "best by" date.
The FDA said Castleberry is cooperating in the recall of these products and has ceased processing and distribution.
Symptoms of botulism poisoning can begin from six hours to two weeks after eating food that contains the toxin and include double vision, blurred vision, drooping eyelids, slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth, and muscle weakness that moves progressively from the upper body to lower extremities.
Botulism poisoning can also cause paralysis of the breathing muscles, which can result in death unless mechanical ventilation is provided.
The disease has only been seen occasionally in dogs and has not been reported in cats, but ferrets are highly susceptible to botulinum toxin. The incubation period can be two hours to two weeks; in most cases, the symptoms appear after 12 to 24 hours.
In animals as in humans, botulism is characterized by progressive motor paralysis. Typical clinical signs may include muscle paralysis, difficulty breathing, chewing and swallowing, visual disturbances and generalized weakness may also occur. Death usually results from paralysis of the respiratory or cardiac muscles. Pet owners who have used these products and whose pets have these symptoms should contact their veterinarian immediately.
The FDA said that it was "not aware of pet illnesses associated with these products although we recommend that all these products should be discarded."
The ongoing investigation is being conducted by the FDA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state health departments.
