Corporate has started a voluntary recall for specific lots of specific products. In a nutshell, the issue doesn't lie with our company or our manufacturing but instead with one specific raw material, whey protein, that we purchase from a particular dairy. The dairy is conducting a full recall as are other companies that have used their whey.

The lots that were purchased by us were tested when they were received and again after this issue arose and in both instances, the tests were negative for Salmonella. Also, Corporate has conducted another 40 or so tests on the finished products and all of them were negative as well. Even though there is no Salmonella, Corporate figured it would be better to be safe and do the voluntary recall. Corporate is fully working with the FDA on this voluntary recall issue. We are all waiting for the FDA to post the official press release.

Damn. Doesn't whey get processed enough that the salmonella would get killed? Or is there no heat involved? Good luck and thanks for keeping us safe. I'm sure the FDA will be really fun to deal with.

Very nice to read! Builds even more trust in me for this company (as if the products haven't already).

If we have older lots that only have a few servings left, can we send those back "just in case"?

This is for Universal


Considering your not here and one of your reps stated you would be in here...i do have to go to the grocery store and get some items. I don't have all day. But here is my question. I lost 90lbs and all i do is lift 5 days per week. I'm on a perfect diet. I take quite a few supplements that are exceptional for my goals. I would like to run 1 (ONE) month of the Animal new line of products. I would like to record a log for Universal. The following supplements I am requesting are the following:

Universal TORRENT GREEN APPLE 3.28LB 179883
Universal TORRENT CHERRY 6.1LB 180071
Universal TORRENT CHERRY 15/SERVINGS 180069
Universal ULTRA WHEY PRO COOKIE&CRM 5LB 179951
Universal REAL GAINS CHOCOLATE 6.85LB 179922B
Universal LAVA 2.75LB ORANGE 180013



I will provide reviews daily if I have to and here is the kicker:


I will put up 50% of my own money up for these products. I have transformed my body in 1 1/2 years moreso then others have on BB.COM going by pics. I swear on my mother i could win one of these transformation contests and i have the pics to prove it.


That's it. Your call. But don't let our arguments in the past reflect on how i think about both the older and newer products. I currently take animal rage and love it. Not saying i won't be completely honest about the product line. You know i am not a "Kiss Ass". Hope this doesn't influence your decision as it shouldn't. One month. That's it.


If you end up back on this thread please respond to me via PM or by this thread. Either way I would like your professional response and feedback. Have a nice day.

yep, this is all a fallout from the large Bongards recall that happened on 2/14. it's surprising that companies (Universal, Vitalabs) are only now announcing it 1 month after - here's a post i made a few weeks ago: http://www.modernfitnessforum.com/su...amination.html

[waanders]

wait, i see no numbers on my tube....anyone see where there located?
