Beneful dog food.........

This is going a bit OT, but I came across a very interesting Consumer Reports article last week. Unusually, it was available for download: http://www.greenerchoices.org/pdf/CR...t_10062014.pdf They tested processed foods labeled organic and/or GMO. The gist of the result was: * Organic labeling can generally be trusted as non-GMO. * Packages labeled "Non-GMO Project Verified" can generally be trusted as non-GMO. * Anything else -- natural, GMO-free, etc means pretty much nothing. * If it's not organic and it contains soy or corn in the US, one should assume it's got high GMO content. But with many foods in that category there's no reason to think they're particularly edible in the first place: Kelloggs, General Mills (GM and Nature Valley), Frito-Lay (Doritos), etc. Those are all factory food companies. |

The specific claim you made was that Nestle chips use "artifical flavoring". So why the segue now into GMO? But even that is pretty dumb. If you look at the ingredients for their chocolate chips WTF is GMO? Cacao? Would be the first. You made the claim that Nestle used artifical flavoring in their chocolate chips. The fact that you;re now talking about everything except that, is pretty much proof that Doug is right. This is going a bit OT, Only because you're desperately trying to evade. but I came across a very interesting Consumer Reports article last week. Unusually, it was available for download: Rest of irrelevant GMO drivel deleted. You hippies are something else. |

This is a 7 year old, 65# pit bull that grandson got from someone that could no longer care for her. Sweetest dog I've ever met. She also makes sure my wife takes a nap every afternoon. |

| Fine, don't take my word for it. Go to a grocery store, pick up a bag of
Nestle chocolate chips, | and look at the ingredients list yourself. It's interesting what one can and can't find online. I was unable to find any ingredients lists at any Nestle site. But I did find this: http://chicago.suntimes.com/business...al-ingredients Nestle was pledging a year ago to remove artificial flavors and colors (artificial colors?!) from many of their candies by the end of 2015. Did they? Maybe. Will I now buy Nestle products? No. I wouldn't consider it. Aside from political and business issues, and the fact that at least up until recently they considered artifical flavors and colors to be proper ingredients of candy, there's one glaring issue that I happen to find relevant: their chocolate is almost tasteless compared with good quality chocolate. Also, some of their products still appear to have hydrogenated fats. I can't confirm that, though, because Nestle doesn't seem to want me to see their ingredients lists. I generally try to buy food products from local or known, accountable companies. That's not always so easy, though. For instance, I've been buying Muir Glen canned, organic tomatoes because the cans say they don't contain BPA lining, and because I don't consider Whole Foods house brands to be trustworthy. But it turns out that Muir Glen is actually owned by General Mills. Does GM allow them to make a decent product? There's no way to know. That's the problem with factory food. Decisions are made by businessmen and products are more marketing than substance. The marketing and name brands make things very confusing. Coke owns Honest Tea and Green Mountain Coffee. Pepsi owns Naked Juice. Post owns Erewhon. Dannon owns Stonyfield Farms, which owns Brown Cow. (yogurt) It seems the best indicator of sellout companies is when they suddenly get good distribution. Which is a case made for the local food fad. |

That's what they said they would do with your product. Do you know that they haven't already tested hundreds or thousands of samples of their product that was returned where dogs died, were hospitalized, etc? That is samples that should be even more probative? This has been going on for quite some time, no? If you were the manufacturer, would you spend your time lab testing one more sample from a case with mild symptoms or would you be trying to figure out other strategies to pursue with what you already have? If I tested a lot of product already, I'm not sure I'd send out more to do the same tests that show nothing. I'd be looking at what they haven't tested for in what they have from cases where dogs died, autopsies had been done, etc. In other workds, I'd be looking more closely at samples from severe cases. And I'd be looking at anything that changed in their formula, sourcing, etc that could account for it. I agree the visual inspection makes no sense. remember the tylenol scare. idiots were adding poision to the bottles. perhaps beneful doesnt want more expensive packaging? Anything is possible, but this looks more like a possible contamination of something in one of the supply streams. That's been the experience so far with similar problems. If it was a common poison, done intentionally, seems likely they would have found it by now. And it's going on all over the country, isn't it? Seems unlikely it's someone tampering with the product. You would certainly think they've looked at whether it's product from one factory, one distribution center, etc. They almost certainly have and can't pin it down. The alternative that you suspect is that they know, just want to deny it and not even correct whatever it takes to fix it. That seems unlikely to me, but anything is possible. THEY CLAIM THERE IS NO PROBLEM AT ALL, AND ITS ALL A SOCIAL MEDIA HYSTERIA. but when theres this much smoke theres obviously a fire. in addition they didnt ask for production code numbers on the bags and havent recalled anything' no doubt they are trying to avoid the costs of recalls, the costs of testing, and the costs of fixing whatever is wrong. |

If you had, you'd know why this scenario could easily happen. Seventeen years at a Fortune 100 company in engineering, marketing and sales. And we never did what was being alleged here. We did have product returned for failure analysis on rare occasions. We analyzed it to find out why it failed. The analysis wasn't cheap, it included electron microscopy when necessary. A very few of those turned out to be something that was due to something that had gone wrong on our end. If it affected other customers, we informed them and gave them options to return product, etc. It was rare, but we did it right. Not only was it the right thing from a moral perspective, but we weren't going to destroy the whole company image, lose customers, etc. The Peter Principle is alive and well! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Principle Sure, it's possible that all the upper management at Purina and Nestle are really, really dumb. But I tend to doubt it. This is now at the level where it's in the media, top management knows about it. It would be really dumb to continue to ship product that you know is killing dogs and thereby destroy the whole brand. They even have a class action law suit now. If the alleged poison is so easy to identify as some here think, there will be powerful, damning evidence in court. What's that going to do to the Purina brand? And if Purina knows what's causing it, the further damage moving forward could be eliminated by some steps that would cost them almost nothing, eg change ingredient, switch suppliers.... Also factor in the potential disaster of the cloud spreading to their other products at Nestle itself. And if the poison is so obvious, easy to find with a test, where exactly is the FDA? Are they part of the cover-up too? When the situation was at this stage with the GM ignition switch, with the deadly air bags, the companies had admitted there was a problem and were taking steps to correct it. So, it's possible Purina knows what's going on and is going on a path of self-destruction, but I tend to doubt it. My bet would be that whatever it is, if it's there, it's not easy to identify what it is. |

I believe beneful had had troubles for years, in a minor way. management hunkerd down and ignored the problems succesfully.
now for unknown reasons the problems size has grown exponentially, and managements hunker down response isnt working. soon nestle beneful will act as though this is a brand new problem and steps will be taken to address the issue. if for no other reason, while this can destroy the beneful brand it can damage the purina brand and can effect the parent company purina. right now management is no doubt wondering what shall we do? |

Beneful dog food.........
Several weeks after a lawsuit filed in California claimed that thousands of dogs became ill or died after eating Purina's Beneful kibble, two senators are urging the Food & Drug Administration to open an investigation into the allegations.
Illinois Senator Dick Durbin, along with California Senator Dianne Feinstein, sent a letter [PDF] to the FDA calling for the agency to quickly investigate claims that Purina PetCare Company's Beneful brand dry dog food contains toxins. The senators also called for immediate updates on the implementation of FDA requirements that could prevent such harmful contamination from occurring in pet foods. In late February, it was revealed that a California man had filed a class action-seeking lawsuit against Purina saying the company's dry dog food contains substances that are known to be toxic to animals and can lead to internal bleeding and other serious health issues for pets. The man alleges that less than a month after beginning to exclusively feed his dogs Beneful dry kibble, all three became ill and his 8-year-old English Bulldog eventually died. According to the lawsuit, illnesses experienced by thousands of dogs across the country were a result of toxins in Beneful such as, but not limited to, Propylene glycol and Mycotoxins. Propylene glycol, the lawsuit states, is an automotive antifreeze component that is a known animal toxin. However, the substance is also an FDA-approved food additive for humans. As for Mycotoxins, the lawsuit states they are a group of toxins produced by fungus that occurs in grains. Representatives for Purina have said that the lawsuit was "without merit" and that the company would vigorously defend itself. In their letter to the FDA, Durbin and Feinstein are asking for updates to the agency's implementation of a 2007 law enacted to help prevent contaminated pet food from reaching animals. Under the 2007 law, the FDA is required to ensure that pet food companies report to the agency within 24 hours of determining they have an adulterated product in their supply chain. Additionally, the law requires the FDA to set ingredient and processing standards for pet food, strengthen labeling requirements, establish early warning systems for contaminated products and mandate that companies report contaminated food and make key records available during investigations. "The components of the law that FDA has implemented are important to the public and veterinarians, namely the searchable online recall list posted on the agency's website," the letter states. "We appreciate that FDA has implemented an online database to inform consumers of pet food recalls. However, eight years later, most provisions of the pet food safety law have not been implemented and protections Congress enacted are not in place." Tell a friend: |
