This morning was on the news that THE CONTAMINATED RECALLED PET FOODS HAD BEEN SOLD TO A HOG FARM AS WASTE FOOD. THE FARM IS NOW QUARRENTINED AND TESTS ARE BEING DONE ON THE HOGS TO SEE IF IT IS IN THEM!........

“As with anything else, the mfr wants to lessen his production costs.”

“THE CONTAMINATED RECALLED PET FOODS HAD BEEN SOLD TO A HOG FARM AS WASTE FOOD.”

Logical train of thought.....or slow motion trainweck?

Even gladder that I dumped Blue Seal, now.
Most of their dog foods ae pork-based.
Would’ve trickled down...and resurfaced, eventually.

Um, aren’t HUMANS in the food chain after HOGS ?

i.e., hogs eat contaminated pet food... humans eat hogs...

If the hogs don’t die but retain the contaminant in their system, we could end up eating it.

Good grief, what idiots thought up this scheme to make/save a buck or two by re-selling / buying / feeding this contaminated food?

????????????????

For crying out loud.
