TIME FOR A PET FOOD LAWSUIT? READ AND DECIDE.




Natural Balance today recalled their petfood, specifically this one:

New recalls from Natural Balance…
Breaking Recall News: Thursday, April 26th, 2007

"Our canned manufacturer, American Nutrition, from Ogden Utah just informed us that they are recalling all canned products made in their plant that contain rice protein concentrate. American Nutrition continued by telling us that they added this ingredient to four of our canned products without informing us.

The four products involved are:

  • Chicken Formula Canned Dog Food 13 oz
  • Lamb Formula Canned Dog Food 13 oz
  • Beef Formula Canned Dog Food 13 oz
  • Ocean Fish Formula Canned Cat Food 3 oz & 6 oz
There have been no illnesses reported related to feeding these formulas, however, to comply with the American Nutrition recall of the four products, we will pull all dates and batches of these four formulas. We also ask that our customers return unused product for a full credit to their store."

Remember, those battling to expose the extent of this pet food scandal wish these ghouls and monsters would disgorge what they are hiding about the crossover to the human food chain: pork, pizza, protein bars and baby foods.

Here's a thought on FDA foot dragging: American Natural ANI is in Ogden Utah. The FDA is controlled by the US Department of Heath and Human Services , whose Secretary Michael O. Leavitt was three-time Gov. of Utah. I do believe we will find some Homeland Insecurity connections there between Leavitt's power base and CHEM NUTRA won't we Mr. Stephen Miller? Would your original PR firm in LA have plastered such mocking laughter on your company's home page? This is a new development since March 17, 2007 after they had the decency to drop you as a client.

But to ensure I have Natural Balance's attention, and to jog their memory, I sent this:

LIES, GREED, AND MORE LIES! YOU'RE ALL PART OF IT - HOW DARE YOU STATE THAT NO PETS WERE MADE SICK BY THIS. REMEMBER ME? REMEMBER ME FROM YOUR EMAILS LAST SATURDAY? NOW I'M PISSED GET YOUR DAMN LAWYERS ON NOTICE I WANT MY CAT'S VET'S VISITS PAID FOR AND A WHOLE LOT MORE.

Here for good readers' edification, is the email exchange between MYSELF and NATURAL BALANCE last SATURDAY. The tone of my email last Saturday pointed NO fingers at NATURAL BALANCE, but were pointed at greed and evil in the system, as promoted by this reckless ghoul-fest of a Corpocracy.

Last Saturday's email provided them with a way to say: "Hey Mackie's Mom, hang tight we're not done testing yet." But they didn't. They told me all the testing came back OK, and thanked me for my support. All right, let's say their testing missed something, fine, but my support DOES NOT include lying about their POISONED FOOD not making their customers' pets sick. YES, MACKIE GOT SICK AND I TOLD THEM SO. THEY COULD CARE LESS, THEY SAID: HAVE A NICE WEEKEND!

They can't help themselves being evil. Even if you tell them it isn't about the money THEY WILL STILL LIE. In the exchange below BETSY MARTIN of Natural Balance is using someone named WADE NILSON'S email account on Saturday to reply to my email, which she addresses by asking me to see her highlighted answers ( all private emails ids HTML here snipped for privacy reasons).

, thanks for all the understanding and support. We truly do appreciate it.

Should part of the legal settlement be to make them eat their tainted food? Betsy appears to tacitly agree with what I proposed. I think Dick Van Patten should be ordered to eat what is in this can, like Mackie ate and got sick all over again. I have that very can in the refrigerator - now I shall keep it as evidence - so this can indeed happen. What say you?
