Dogs and cats continue to die as pet food recall expands

by Goldy — Friday, 4/6/07, 7:09 pm

Yesterday, after the nationwide pet food recall expanded to include dog biscuits produced by Sunshine Mills under several brands, the FDA assured reporters that it believed the recall was complete.

The FDA knows of no other pet product companies planning recalls, agency officials told reporters.

“Other than that, I think, you know, the public should feel secure in purchasing pet foods that are not subject to the recall,” Stephen Sundlof, director of the FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine, told reporters.

Whoops.

Itchmo’s got the latest, including the news that Xuzhou Anying exports 10,000 metric tons of wheat gluten a year. 972 tracked down, only 9,028 left to go. Meanwhile, Pet Connection readers now report 3,242 dogs and cats suspected of dying due to contaminated food.

    OT, but you have not apologized for the “shitty product” slur on the Sonics players.

    Goldy, I am going to have to blame the Democats for this one.

    Melamine costs about 65 cents per pound on the wholesale market:

    Is it a cheaper filler for wheat gluten?

    Goldy,

    Late today Del Monte expanded their recall. Love these friday news dumps. These folks have learned well from rover. I’m sure lots of recalled pet food is still on the shelves especially in the mom and pop stores.

    @2 Why not be more specific, Richard, and say “I am going to have to blame Clinton for this one?” — along with 9/11, global warming, the birth of Mohammed, and your countless electoral defeats. Yep — it’s all Clinton’s fault!!!

    @4 They’re saving the recall of 50% of the human food supply for Saturday night.

    Sid58 @1 Goldy posted his retraction in the previous thread. You must have missed it, so here it is:

    “Goldy says: You’re out of your fucking mind. 04/06/2007 at 7:39 pm”

    Ooops!! My mistake. He told you to take your complaint and shove it up your ass.
