Menu Foods contaminated pet food

Most cat and dog owners are familiar with the recall of moist pet food by Menu Foods due to contamination. The latest news: testing by the FDA found traces of melamine in the wheat gluten used to make the food. Traces of this chemical were found in the kidney of a sick cat. Melamine, used to make plastics, is also used as fertilizer in other countries. This story will no doubt continue to unfold. There's more information available at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melamine. No doubt, pet owners are a little concerned about the 60 million pet food containers that were recalled, and have switched to dry pet food. It sounds like a good time to go organic; visit http://www.organic-nature-news.com/organicpetfood.html for suggestions.
