New book explores pet food politics
Posted by petfoodsafety on September 10, 2008
Pet owners who lost their cats and dogs in the 2007 pet food contamination will not soon forget that scandal. But, neither should anyone else, says nutrition expert and Chronicle columnist Marion Nestle whose new book, “Pet Food Politics,” is just hitting store shelves.
The reason, Nestle says, is because the entire issue sends out clear warnings about weaknesses in our global food production system, for humans as well as animals. That’s why the book’s subtitle is “The Chihuahua in the Coal Mine.”
