Pet food industry trade publications are discussing the changes in the pet food feeding trends, moving to more natural holistic and even raw diets. The FDA does not advocate raw diets for pets, primarily because of the concern regarding bacterial contamination such as in this most recent recall.

Salmonella and Listeria are two significant pathogens, both of which can infect humans and cause severe illness.
