Wow, months late and they now have a theory that maybe, just maybe, the companies who were selling the tainted wheat gluten and rice protein were trying to spike the products to show higher levels of protein. Gosh, ya think? Maybe after a few thousand more pets die the Republican-ruined FDA might even start to get serious about doing their job. Well, at least the food importers are getting a cheap deal and business is moving...isn't that what their mission is at the FDA?
Imported ingredients used in recalled pet food may have been intentionally spiked with an industrial chemical to boost their apparent protein content, federal officials said Thursday.What will those enterprising folks at the FDA come up with next?
That’s one theory being pursued by the Food and Drug Administration as it investigates how the chemical, melamine, contaminated at least two ingredients used to make more than 100 brands of dog and cat foods.
