Don’t forget to visit Friday Ark #138 for a myriad of beastly photos and related goodies.

Although I’d heard something about it, mArniAc forwarded an article to me with all the details about farmed fish who were given tainted food related to the ongoing and ballooning food recall.  “Farmed fish were fed meal spiked with an industrial chemical linked to the ongoing recall of pet foods, though the contamination level was probably too low to pose a danger to anyone who may have eaten the fish, federal health officials said Tuesday. The Canadian-made meal included what was purported to be wheat gluten, a protein source, imported from China. The material was actually wheat flour spiked by the chemical melamine and related, nitrogen-rich compounds to make it appear more protein rich than it was, officials said. [. . .] It wasn’t immediately clear if any of the farmed fish entered the food supply.”

On a related note, I’m no longer referring to it as the pet food recall.  That’s now a misnomer.  The contamination has reached well into the human food supply even while the pet food aspect of it continues to grow exponentially.  At this point, we see clearly how our entire food chain is interlocked and interlinked.  Poison introduced into any one spoke of the system will rapidly find its way throughout the whole of the supply.  That now stands undeniably before us, a sad truth which clearly indicates our government, charged with protecting that same system from just such events, really has a complete lack of control and ability.
