Pet jerky treats, mostly imported from China, are being linked to more than 1,000 deaths in dogs, more than 4,800 complaints about animal illness, and, for the first time, sickness in three people who ate the products, federal health officials said Friday, according to nbcnews.com.

But Food and Drug Administration officials say they still can't identify a specific cause for the reported illnesses or deaths, despite seven years of tests and investigation.

Why is the FDA considering allowing chickens processed in China (in plants FDA inspectors an forbidden to inspect, no less!) to be sold in the US as American products?

Same answer for everything.

I don’t think so, in terms of pure filth and weird, wayward chemicals. China is tops in that regard.

US doggies deserve USA treats! Mine just ate part of my pizza tonight!

FDA is witless when it come to protecting us from Chinese poison food. They are also witless when it comes to protecting us from Big Pharma poisons they call drugs.
