So to review I ordered Solid Gold yesterday because I can't get the 
Taste of the wild food right now and needed something to feed the dogs. 
I've been watching my email today for a message that my order was 
shipped. No ship confirmation came. Instead I found the following in my 
in box.

humans. If
your pet has consumed the recalled product and has these symptoms,
please contact
your veterinarian.

, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after
having contact
with surfaces exposed to this product. People who believe they may have
been exposed
to
Salmonella
should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms:
nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. According to
