There have been so many recalls and problems and whatnot.  I get them 
all confused.  Does anyone know of any resource that will list 
companies/brands that have never had issues?

I'm calling PetFlow this morning to get my order straightened out.  
Right now I'm planning on going with Earth borne Great Plains Feast.
