What is going on? The latest twist is that the pet food that was recalled and removed from store shelves was marked as "salvage" and that is the food that was passed along to the hog farms and fed to the hogs that are now quarantined! The hogs will be destroyed, said the US Government, and the owners will be compensated.
Now for the really scary part...
Wilbur-Ellis began importing rice protein from China in August 2006. The company did not become aware of the contamination until April 2007. The FDA determined that the rice protein was used to produce pet food and a portion of that pet food was used to produce animal feed. At this time the FDA has said that their is no evidence of harm to humans associated with the processed pork products...but if any evidence surfaces they will take appropriate action. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
