You can rest very assured about Pioneer. They have been around for generations and are located in San Antonio. Most everybody that grew up in South Texas has eaten Pioneer products. Pioneer products are the best.

As a side note, my Marketing group for my MBA did a study for Pioneer that the company found very interesting and useful. That’s why I have so much confidence in their products.

Is melamine explosive? I know it’s used in fertilizer.

Oops, meant to add your name too!

[CJ Wolf]

No that’s the list from the FDA. I can’t find anything that matches, however I’m not sure if wheat or rice starch and flour might be made up of protein or gluten.

" I always thought everything, especially foodstuffs, where highly traceable, and I hate to say it but regulated, in all even half-ways civilized countries. Don't the Chinese realize this can harm their families and their own animals."

I live in a rural area of Southern Alabama...all the cows in the fields around here have an ID tag in each ear. Each cow is tracked while in the field and the meat can be traced all the way from these fields to your dinner table. Mad Cow Disease and such.

I just saw your post with all the websites and bookmarked them. Thanks oodles for the list.

I don’t know either. I have a year old grandson and I think his mom feeds him whatever they eat. I need to warn her about this. I’m sure she doesn’t even know. She isn’t prone to reading the news, not that it’s been discussed anywhere but here.

Thanks so much for all those links! I sure do appreciate your effort.

Instant Karma. This is what happens when people are alienated from the land and its produce and food for human beings becomes just another form of animal fodder — a commodity for the free market money machine, to be supplied by the lowest bidder.

We feed animals filth and wonder why they become diseased. Now we're eating filth directly.

It reminds me of the “Made in USA of foreign made material” tag you see on a lot of clothing. Ridiculous. Whatever happened to the United States being able to sustain itself with its own products?

That idea died when the free-market libertarians took over. No more buggywhip industries for us! We're all "knowledge workers" now!

Until the other shoe drops.

The pets who were sickened by the contaminated food became acutely ill very quickly. As in a couple of days.

What country stands to benefit if a lot of Americans get kidney disease?

A country that is reputed to sell human kidneys for transplant.

[ApplegateRanch]

That’s excellent! May I copy that and use when needed?

Be my guest!

[abigailsmybaby]

Thank you!

I think it was on 60 Minutes IIRC.

$10,000 per organ. The Chinese take DNA samples of all of their Death Row inmates and when an organ order comes in,

Viola! It’s execution time.

No genetic match currently in “inventory”?

No problem, round up a dissident, a Catholic, a Falon Gong or anyone else matching the profile you need.

[US_MilitaryRules]

I’ll post it.

It’s not known if this is related to the melamine recalls, but Manna Pro is asking their customers to discard their Uni-Milk milk replacement product for young animals.

This recall was announced March 30 and is not listed on the FDA site.

FDA confirmation of 1950 deaths of cats and 2200 deaths of dogs.

Interestingly, as of about a week ago, the FDA would only confirm approximately 3 dead dogs and 5 dead cats (or some other miniscule number). Suddenly now they've upped the figures considerably.

So, basically, if the "food" is from China; and it contains largish molecules that incorporate carbon, it is "organic".

Sounds like the definition I learned in high school chemistry.
