 Oh Janice,

 That's terrible.

 My husband and I were just talking about the possibility that the same thing
 could happen in the human food chain or (somwhow it seems worse) our horse
 grains.


they say it was not in dry food, only wet.  So maybe our horse feed
would be spared.  But wheat gluten is used in many many human food
products.  I wonder if sweet feed has any type of gluten binder?  I am
checking my finish line iron supplement and other cream/gel type
products for wheat gluten.  Like Probios, wormers etc.

 Apparently a news announcement indicates that rat poison has been found in
 the pet foods recalled for killing animals.

Jeez I hope someone didn't do it on purpose.

I think it is just indifference of pet food manufacturers willing to use 
unsuitable for consumption crap in pet food.

From what I understand they think the poison was on wheat that they
imported from China for the wheat gluten (which is what thickens the
gravy)  It is a type of poison that is outlawed in the US

and you know what is scaring me??  In two weeks a man age 35 at my old
job on monday, called in sick with a stomach ache.  On wednesday his
wife said he was worse and took him to the hospital.  On thursday they
said he had kidney failure and didn't know why.  On Monday they said
he had liver failure too and didn't know why.  On Tuesday he was in a
coma.  On Thurs he was on life support brain dead.  On Fri today, they
unplugged him and he died!!  I am freaked out!  On the news they said
the CDC is looking into possibilities of human death from this!  All
of us here are baffled as to what could have caused this perfectly
healthy backpacker outdoorsy type to completely die in two weeks!
