[QUOTE="donna723, post: 29514, member: 1883"] This is REALLY scary. It's bad enough that pets have gotten sick or even died. I have three dogs and it would break my heart of anything like this were to happen to any of them. But what if this imported wheat gluten had been used in foods for [i]humans[/i] and it was [i]people[/i] that were getting sick and dying!!! It probably could have just as easily been used in human food as in pet food! I'll bet too that this poison was used for rodent control in the pet food factory, and they're just not admitting it. What would be the point in having this substance [i]mixed in[/i] with wheat products that were going to be used for pet food? Could that happen by accident? It doesn't make much sense to me! In our rural area we have co-ops and feed stores and in the spring they sell different kinds of garden seeds - corn, beans, etc. - that have been treated with insecticides and fungicides, but they're certainly not intended to be [i]eaten[/i], either by animals or by people. That's the only way I see that it could be considered an "accident" and I seriously doubt that this is what happened here. [/QUOTE]
