My letter is still not on consumer Reports?

Faith my prayers are with you. My previous dog went thru 26 days of radiation treatments - yes we beat the cancer but her elbow developed a sore which opened up cause the bone was coming thru the skin. I did a search and found that cottage cheese in small amounts (if your cat can have this) helped to heal the skin and it had started to grow over the bone again. But as luck would have it I had to take off her leg anyway. She did fine til the kidneys started to go so know where your at. Please make sure the clinic/hospital explains everything they are doing and what home care your baby should get. The cancer facility I used in Buffalo Grove, IL slapped a bandage on her leg after her last cancer check-up and sent me home - never, ever telling me the dog should have been on a high protein diet to heal her fully. My best to you and yours.

Many more deaths suspected?
The vet and I were both real sure MY pets were really dead.
They were dead enough to be cremated.
The editor really should have apologized.

THE LIE MUST DIE!

I can’t deal with this guy tonight, I just can’t.

I had just about given up on them. I hope next time they can say 16 of Menu Foods test animals died and untold thousands in the US alone.

The comments finally showed up Consumer Reports with a rather… limp statement from an editor

Thanks, everyone, for your comments. I hope you’ll all take the time to read this entire post, as well as the linked articles from Consumer Reports. We share the concerns of pet owners everywhere, and acknowledge that the “16 cats and dogs” figure is the official count; as we say above, “many more are suspected.” As you’ll see from the article linked above, Consumer Reports has been advocating against contaminated animal feed for years. The linked article appeared in January 2005, long before the current crisis, and concluded that “our investigation raises concerns that the federal government isn’t doing enough to protect the feed supply and that as a result, the food we eat may not be as safe as it could be.” We will continue to report on this serious issue, and we look forward to a continued dialog with all of you.

I doubt they will repeat the hated 16 unless they want another pounding.
The look forward to a continued dialog stuff made me laugh. I just bet they are.
They do the 16 again and he will be looking back at the smoking ruins of his career.

“Over the past two years, 99 percent of food exported to the United States was up to safety standards, which is a very high percentage,” said Li Yuanping, senior official in charge of imported and exported food safety in the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (GAQSIQ).

====================
could this be because only one percent is inspected?

On Kiki’s Gas contaminants: How the heck would Alumimun get Into Gasolines?

I thought Alumimun was a Totally Man-made metal {not mined or found in the ‘ground’}

The only thing I can think of that it is contaminanted During Refining of Crude.

{and depending on the ‘cafe-blends’ {how many ‘cleanings’ it goes through} could there be/must be, some wearing of the pipes and tubes and where metal meets metal pieces, rubbing off/shirring In-to the product.
Great Refinery maintenance!

What do we do?
Can we Buy a filter for the tank at the mouth??? {get out my Grandma’s fine screen sieve?!}
Scheesch!
