Oly blogger Jane Johnson on her blog seajane has the story: Dog Food.

I knew something was up about tainted dog food but I did not know that 3,168 pets have died. Jane has put together a thorough, informative post about ongoing investigations.

I wonder where she got her numbers (3,168)

It seems like a much more likely number than the ultra-low numbers the press is reporting, but where did she get her info?

A Dyslexic Moment

I was in Top Foods and saw the aisle for "Bag/Canned Cat Food" and misread it as "Banned Cat Food." My first thought was, "Wild. They are now selling the banned cat food for people who want to get rid of their cats." Hey, it is possible.
