Not In The Dog House


Reports of animal illnesses and deaths were first reported to Menu Foods in February as this video of the Menu Foods Press conference shows. Coincidence? I think not.....

The chief financial officer of Menu Foods Income Fund sold nearly half his units in the pet food maker less than three weeks before it announced a massive product recall, according to insider trading reports.

The reports show that Mark Wiens sold 14,000 units for C$102,900 ($89,700) on February 26 and February 27. As of Monday's close of C$4.46, the units would be worth C$62,440.

After the sale, Wiens owned 17,193 units and had options to buy 101,812, the trading reports show.

On March 16, the Mississauga, Ontario, pet food maker recalled 60 million containers of "cuts and gravy" style pet food amid reports of pet deaths due to contamination.

There are products being sold everywhere [internet.classifieds,garage sales, etc.] that do not conform to safety standards!!!
I was constantly searching websites to make myself aware!!!
That was until I joined totalrecallinfo.com!!!
They alert me daily about recalls worldwide. No longer must I sit at my screen for hours.
Although you may think CPSC, NHTSA, etc. has you covered, nothing could be farther from the truth.
Not only do they make you aware of daily recalls, they offer 1 on 1 service, for hard to find recalls...
For the month of July, totalrecallinfo.com would like you to compare our weekly list, to what you can remember hearing about...Use ''preview'' as username and password to see recent recalls...
Not only do they cover consumer products, vehicles, atv's, etc. but also food, drugs,etc...
