It's obvious their site wasn't hacked and I am guessing they WILL recognize the sarcasm in my message. LOL Comment by E. Hamilton — April 30, 2007 @ 7:22 pm

I think that guy's smoking crack, not ganja! That part about picking carcasses made my skin crawl. I'm from Michigan originally, lots of road kill in rural areas :>( If we all returned to our "natural state" what would the average life expectancy be, maybe 30-40 years tops? Really weak argument. Guess he felt the need to justify his ongoing association with Menu. Maybe felt the pressure applied by Natura who has made the decision to severe ties asap. (although I'm not going to hold my breath). Keep Wysong on my boycott list. Ooh I read it now. I think that guy’s smoking crack, not ganja! That part about picking carcasses made my skin crawl.

I don't use a pop up blocker and maybe the little window that opens at the top of the main page is blocked by a pop up blocker. It simply states "No Wysong pet nutritional products, dry or canned, are part of the current recalls." Then there is a link to Further reading.

Maybe they were hacked. But it does all come back to me, I chose not to change to Wysong because they had products made my Menu. Greed makes for strange bedfellows.
