1 recall on record · most recent 2023 · all resolved

In 2023, Victor was the source brand for a multistate Salmonella Kiambu outbreak that sickened 7 people (mostly infants) across 7 states, with 1 hospitalization. A retail sample of Victor Hi-Pro Plus tested positive and matched the human outbreak strain, triggering a rolling recall that expanded from a single lot (Sept. 3) to all Mid America-made pet food with best-by dates before 10/31/2024 (Nov. 9). The FDA issued a warning letter to the manufacturer in November 2024.
