As many of you already know, there was a huge recall in the middle of March regarding dog and cat foods made by Menu Food. This is a Canadian company, so it really hit home since they sell their products in local stores near my house. I own a dog myself, so as soon as I heard about the crazy recall, I went and checked out every dog food I had purchased to make sure none were any of the kinds that were recalled. Thankfully, I didn’t buy any of them.

I still can’t believe that they are recalling more and more pet food every other week, so it seems. The dog food recall is what I worried about the most since I own a dog. It’s depressing to think that if I bought any of the recalled items, my dog could of been potentially sick. It’s heartbreaking seeing all these pet owners come forward with their stories about their pets who are now struggling with the effects from the tainted pet food.

I angry that such an incident has occurred. Why wasn’t everything thoroughly screened before being imported? Why have all the tests afterwards to prove what had contaminated all the pet food. Why didn’t they do these kinds of tests before. I think some companies better start testing anything that is food related for pets and for humans. What’s next? A giant recall of whole wheat bread which better much anyone eats? It’s crazy to think that this could potentially happen to any kind of food we consume.
