Uncovering the truth.


A few months ago we came across an article in a pet magazine written by acclaimed author Marion Nestle. The article reported on Pet Expos or Pet Trade shows and the rise of more natural products and most importantly domestic made food products. More recently at "Slow Food Nation" we came across her latest book "Pet Food Politics". In this book Nestle follows the trail of the largest pet food recall in U.S. history and takes a close look at the tainted pet food ingredients back to their source in China and along the supply chain. The book reads like a detective, mystery novel yet she highlights the failings of food regulation and makes us all wonder about how this affects all of our food supply. After reading this you can't ever see pet food the same again, nor should you. An absolute must read.
