Nestle follows the trail of tainted pet food ingredients back to their source in China and along the supply chain to their introduction into feed for pigs, chickens, and fish in the United States, Canada, and other countries throughout the world. What begins as a problem 'merely' for cats and dogs soon becomes an issue of tremendous concern to everyone. Nestle uncovers unexpected connections among the food supplies for pets, farm animals, and people and identifies glaring gaps in the global oversight of food safety.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
