Looks like the U.S. taxpayer will compensate the hog farmers for adulterated Chinese food products.

Unbelievable!

“USDA is offering to compensate producers who euthanize swine that were fed the adulterated product. USDA is authorized to use Section 32 funds to restore farmers’ purchasing power. USDA is also offering the expertise and assistance of Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) personnel in carrying out depopulation activities, to ensure animals are euthanized and disposed of in accordance with Federal and State laws.”

Unbelievable is right.
Big item on the news here, they are blaming Chemnutro and FDA is inspecting.
Also one station said 22 people have eaten tainted pork.....another station said 40 people have eaten it.

OK, if only 15 pets have died, that means thousands of people have eaten it, right?

What did they know and when did they know it.

Going to the March For Pets tomorrow here in Vegas.
