What I mean is even the the exact same brands of pet food that were recalled in america were not recalled here because all of the food and the ingredients going in it are tested throurally on arriving in the country and it goes back if it doesn't pass. It seems like they get away with importing dodgy stuff into the US. Hopefully the recall has made the big companies much more aware. |
I agree 100%!! We need MUCH tighter restrictions, stricter and more consistent testing, and more funding for customs. What we're doing now obviously isn't working.
Your earlier post just made me realize how narrow-minded I was being regarding imported goods. I shouldn't say that I will ONLY buy items made in the US because many other countries have wonderful reputations and much stricter guidelines and testing than we do right now.
