“I and love and you” is voluntarily recalling 1,299 cases of treats because the product has the potential to be contaminated with salmonella.

This voluntary recall is limited to cow-boom! strips – beef gullet that were packaged into 2.0 oz bags, with the lot numbers C20130-1994T1 and C20130-2024T1 and a best-by-date of 07/2016 and UPC number 8 18336 01134 4.

There have been no reported pet or human illnesses associated with this recall.

The company has notified its distributors and retailers and is taking this voluntary action as a precautionary measure. No other products from the company are affected by this recall.

Routine sampling by an inspector for the Colorado Department of Agriculture revealed the presence of salmonella, which prompted this voluntary recall.  This product is supplied by a U.S. supplier.

Consumers should look at the lot numbers and best-by-dates printed on the bag to determine if it is subject to this recall. People who have purchased these products are instructed to dispose of the product or return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Healthy people handling the product contaminated by salmonella should monitor themselves for nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and fever. Consumers exhibiting these signs after having contact with the product should contact their health care provider immediately.

Pets with salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the product and has exhibited these symptoms, you should contact your veterinarian immediately.

Consumers with questions may contact the company at 855-ILY-LOVE Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. MT or via email at [email protected].
