Yeah, I've been focusing on Purina's dry products, because that's all
we use here.

This unnamed supplier of bad "stuff" from China is apparently a U.S.
company, so I'm sure that threats of litigation is behind the
non-release of its name - before all the test results are in.

Not to mention that the FDA is a pawn of big business...

A lot of lawyers are going to become even richer because of it.

Yep.

Who is next?

God only knows. But I feel very good about Purina's dry products.

I think you can at this point, since they already identified a non-Menu
Foods product in which they used wheat gluten from the supplier in
question.

Yes, it could be something else altogether (although somewhat
unlikely), which is probably one reason the supplier's name is being
withheld until more testing can be done.

But "better safe than sorry" has always been one of my mottos.

Ditto here. Hence the pile of treats in the trash.

Tragic results for some aside, this episode should likely result in
higher standards, more testing, etc. for dog and cat foods generally.

Damn well better.

I just hope that we get to the bottom of this pretty soon.

Damn well better.
