On April 20, Medi-Cal, makers of Royal Canin pet food, recalled several more of their products with the following statement:
Royal Canin has discovered a new contaminant in rice gluten. This contaminant is cyanuric acid, which is chemically related to, but distinct from, melamine. Consequently, we are recalling all date codes of these dry products.
Royal Canin found cyanuric acid -- specifically -- in rice gluten.
Yep.....I read about it on Pet Connection at the time, but it didn’t seem to resonate with a lot of people and the media certainly didn’t seem willing to go there.
