The Center for Science in the Public Interest, a Washington, D.C.-based group that advocates health and food safety, recommended that the FDA bar the import of grains from China. "If U.S. pets must serve as the 'puppies (and kittens) in the coal mine,' we urge FDA to heed the warning and take action now to ban grains and other grain products until the Chinese government and producers can guarantee that these imports are free of illegal and dangerous substances," the group said in a written statement.
Sundlof says that the fact that melamine has turned up in all three of these proteins lends "credibility'' to theories that it was intentionally introduced. "That will be one of the theories we will pursue when we get into the plants in China," he says. The FDA's Elder adds that, "the shipment of an adulterated product" is illegal under the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act of 1938, and anyone found to be in violation of the law could face criminal prosecution and penalties
I hope they are prosecuted to the full extent of the law, as far as I am concerned these greedy companies murdered Whiskers and all the other pets who died because their pet food was POISONED. To know that it was probably done intentionally in order to increase profits makes me SICK. There should be a special place in HELL for the people that poisoned our pets.
