Didn't think about the main page at Itchmo, just the forums. Sandik on Itchmo does update the CA page listing the complaints about Nutro on the thread on Itchmo regularly too.

At least that's the first thing I thought of when I read that post. I agree with everyone......when a new product came out, I always waited to hear that it was approved by the FDA. Now those words mean absolutely nothing to me. The present FDA is no more than a cover for megacorps. They are certainly not there to help the public. Sorry but that's how I feel. I don't even want to get started on Nutro! JJ……I think what that poster was talking about is the front page of Itchmo where we used to post before it was shut down.

I don’t even want to get started on Nutro!

Do you think he actually bothered to write it down? We have to keep the Pet Food industry happy, just like the USDA and FDA needs to know they are doing a good job for the Pet Food industry. The public--well, they just feed it to their animals. If they make it, fine, and not--well, they can just get another pet. Maddening, but that is they way I feel it is going.
