The Recall is Affecting Europe Now
The recall also expanded to include 2 varieties in Europe.
Full details: http://www.itchmo.com/read/breaking-...ation_20070502 BREAKING NEWS: Menu Foods Recall Expands Dramatically Due to Cross-Contamination May 2nd, 2007 This recall expansion covers dozens of new brands and foods - wet foods only. Menu Foods is now recalling additional foods due to cross-contamination, more than a month and a half after the initial recall. (Corrected) The recall also expanded to include 2 varieties in Europe. Menu Foods expanded recall list at: http://www.itchmo.com/read/breaking-...ation_20070502 Brands covered in expansion are listed at Itchmo. New brands are marked (New). Our recall list is now up-to-date. Menu Foods says: Menu Foods has previously recalled wet cat and dog food produced with adulterated wheat gluten supplied by ChemNutra Inc. Menu Foods is now expanding the recall to include cuts and gravy and select other products which do not include ChemNutra wheat gluten but which were manufactured at any of Menu Foods' plants during the period that ChemNutra wheat gluten was used at that plant, to the extent they have not already been subject to a recall, due to the possibility of cross-contamination. Menu Foods has received a report from a customer and has received study results, both of which indicate cross-contamination. Hugs, CatNipped |

That's a relief. On the other hand, Trader Joe's *is* on the list, and I've occasionally fed them TJ's canned food. That will stop! Thanks for the update. Joyce |

I was thinking about this one yesterday, so when I noticed you post it today, I had already realised that this problem is far more widespread than we are aware of. As I have posted, there are many people that I know who have got people from USAF bases to buy pet food for them because of the quality and price difference. Thankfully , I am not one of them.. but I do know people who have purchased many of the foods on your regular lists ( which are very much appreciated, I assure you, because our own media has ignored the entire issue altogether!!!!!). In fact, if it wasn't for the groups, we probably wouldn't know at all. Worse, the personnel who are buying these pet foods seem to know nothing about this either. That is utterly shocking as far as I am concerned.... We need to be asking the media questions ourselves, & I have decided to contact a few media outlets such as Sky News, to ask why they are not cutting stories about this disaster. It is a global problem, not just an American problem..... & this is simply one of the reasons why...I'm certain there are others, I just haven't thought of them yet;o( S;o) |

Joyce And I wonder if some pet diseases like renal failure in cats was always at the rate it is now, or if it started to increase at around the same time as the melamine started going into the food? I wish the people responsible for this had to eat the same contaminated ingredients they've been disseminating to our pets, until they develop the same symptoms. It makes me furious. Donna |

Donna No, not bad enough. There are things that will kill a cat that won't harm a person all that much. How about we feed them some ground glass instead. That might give them some clue what this does to cats. Jo |

It would be a fitting reassurance, wouldn't it? If they were willing to, I might be inclined to believe them, but not until!! I feel just as angry about it as you do too! S;o) |
