The government says no recall is needed in the case of hogs thought to have eaten contaminated pet food.

We first told you Wednesday about a pig farm in California under quarantine.

An industrial chemical that tainted more than 100 brands of dog and cat food was found in pig urine.

The government says the risk to humans is very low from hogs that may have eaten contaminated pet food.

Several hundred hogs that had the food are believed to have been placed on the path to slaughter, but thousands more are still on farms.

Now, no meat from any of those hogs can enter the food supply.

Terrorists? Sure, I'd call greedy capitalist industrialist pigs that- I worked for White Westinghouse once-Even years ago they were firing older employees with 19 years in the company a few months before retirement to avoid paying benefits- while upper level management got raises, bonuses, stock- why, so they could buy one more McMansion? Wake up people, the enemy is among us and has been and they are NOT necessarily brown skinned as you are told.

Why do we continue to "import" more problems into this country?

Has anyone considered the possibility that, with all these "accidental" food poisonings, they might be the work of "foreign terrorists"?
