Casper Star Tribune Sunday "Nestle is one of the best writers on the general subject of the food industry... Guaranteed to get you thinking." Booklist "Like a good novel, the book is a quick, even entertaining read. The message, however, is one that demands paying attention." San Francisco Chronicle "A call to action that we can all hope the new Obama administration hears before there's a repeat of the tragedy." Sacramento Bee "The information and its implications are eye-opening. It's a call to action that we can all hope the new Obama administration hears." -- Gina Spadafori The Daily Citizen "Reads like a gripping murder mystery." Alternet.org

Reseña del editor

Marion Nestle, acclaimed author of "Food Politics", now tells the gripping story of how, in early 2007, a few telephone calls about sick cats set off the largest recall of consumer products in U.S. history and an international crisis over the safety of imported goods ranging from food to toothpaste, tires, and toys. 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.
