Pet food tainted with the chemical melamine was found in feed rations on a California hog farm and may show up on other U.S. farms, state and federal officials said on Friday.[..]
California officials said Diamond Pet Foods sold pet food to American Hog Co., which used it as a feed ingredient. Tests found melamine in feed at the farm and in urine from the hogs.
Richard Breitmeyer, the state veterinarian, said it was “not uncommon” for pet food makers to sell scrap material to feedlots.
“In the course of our investigation, we may find similar situations in other parts of the country,” said Stephen Sundlof, head of the Center for Veterinary Medicine at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, referring to sales of scrap pet food.[..]
State and U.S. Agriculture Department officials said there was no evidence that pork products from the farm entered the food supply but that they were still tracking the whereabouts of all the hogs produced there since April 3. Some 126 of the hogs are known to have been slaughtered for meat
This story just gets worse and worse.
Death Comes in Many Flavors and Varieties now…
For Wildlife, Pets and People!
There’s Lots of Money to be Made!
Good Morning GEF!
OMG This is not good! They’re trying to track the hogs that were slaughtered.. so who knows where that meat went..
Morning S-Q!
Expect Class Action Lawsuits to start flying…
Lawyer up Evildoers…
Their Profits are about to dwindle… 😉
GEF:
Yes, when people get sick and possibly fatal…you can bet there will be lawsuits!
S-q,
They used Melamine to boost the protein content on Foods and it’s backfiring on them big time!
Look at what Melamine is!
This was done on purpose!
I told you so.
Good morning GEF
My gawd, now I’m gonna have to make my own organic cat food for my old buddy “Farmboy”.
btw…here’s another sad story …):
My friend George was doing a masonry job by a pet hospital, and seen a large truck with a sign right on the side of it for a pet food company. He was aoppalled as he seen them load up with dead pets to feed the sheeples pets.
The good news is that I’m not eating cat food…yet.
G;
Geezer,
We may have to stay away from All meats soon…
Lord knows what they’re feeding animals in the farm these days…
Hi Teak!
You don’t say… 😉
I got a momma cat with 4- 1 week old kitties acting sick this morning. My daughter is freaking out. I hope I didn’t miss an ingredient, the other cat seems fine.
Greed for faster, higher profits and screwing around with things they shouldn’t be messin’ with caused this!
I tried to post an article earlier in the week that seemed fishy, I’ll try and find it. I think it has something to do with this mess.
S-q,
The Biotechs are in charge of food and the FDA turns the other way for $$$$$$$$$…
Congress and the WH don’t care.
When Rich people start dying off by the thousands they may flinch at that point!
The good news is that I’m not eating cat food…yet.

Geezer:
Well, did you ever see that movie “SOYLENT GREEN”?
It’s the year 2022… People are still the same. They’ll do anything to get what they need. And they need SOYLENT GREEN.
In an overpopulated futuristic Earth, a New York police detective finds himself marked for murder by government agents when he gets too close to a bizarre state secret involving the origins of a revolutionary and needed new foodstuff.

Yep…Cat food …the survival food of the social security set…(:
P.S.
Teak, just so you know that I am not talking out of my a$$… I have something in the works that will have a direct impact on this blog! Soon…. 😉
Geezer:
That movie, Soylent Green, really freaked me out years ago when I watched it!
Teak,
I hope you can type fast!
When I run out of fingers I go with a few toes… 😉
LOLMAO*)
I don’t want hired, just share information that I’m unsure about if it is correct or not. The MSM usually gets around to half-ass revealing sooner or later in bits and pieces.

A matter of who to trust from that old blog, yes or no? Do you understand?

Yes, I understand…

Hush now…
Don’t be giving away trade secrets in public blogware..

Just to clarify a little …
Royal Canin has also issued a recall for several of their brands of dog food and 1 cat food (dry/wet). They have had no incidents however are proactively recalling.
The Diamond Pet Food Company (had a problem a few years ago) sold pet food that was NOT suitable for pets to a hog farmer for feed. The hogs that ate the feed were all sold ONLY in whole lots. In other words, they did not go into the general consumer pork pipeline…they were sold in bulk (a whole pig at a time).
Since I have 4 purebred cats I’m watching this like a hawk. I also had FIVE CASES of recalled food – had used some but no one got sick.
Many of the high end new foods are grain-free – so far we’ve been lucky.
This is what happens when we outsource to countries that do not follow the same standards that we do. The melamine chemically enhances wheat and rice gluten to appear higher in actual protein levels than it really is –
GEF:
It’s no secret when you admitted that you type with yer toes! BUSTED!
ROFLMAO
S-q,
Maybe so but I didn’t say anything about toes per minute…
Shhh…

That’s right! Those countries and we know which ones they are without mentioning names…treat animals horribly anyway!
GEF:
Hmmm…. TPM…. I want to do some research on your toes!

These Fat Cat Porkrinds are an extinct species because when money becomes worthless they’ll be too slow and lazy to fend for food and just die off by the curbside!

Who’s idea was it to put Crude Oil on Fat Evildoers ?
Hee hee hee!
Geezer:
I used to have gardens up there… if I remember correctly, I always planted around the 1st of May. When do you plant?

SQ, I sent you an email.
Do not feed your animals anything with wheat gluten or the other poisoned ingredients, even if the brand is not on the list…read the package yourself and don’t assume someone else did.
