FDA to begin testing human food supply for melamine

Here's a devilish twist to the pet food recalls. What is really going on? Could this be that humans are the targets and who would be behind such a plot if that were the case? Makes you wonder.

FDA to begin testing human food supply for melamine
NEW YORK (CNN) --

The Food and Drug Administration says it will, for the first time, test ingredients imported for use in the human food supply in connection with the nationwide pet food recall that has killed, by some estimates, thousands of pets.

In addition, the FDA on Tuesday announced plans to expand testing of the animal food supply after hogs on farms in three states were quarantined after testing positive for the substance at the center of the recall, the toxic agent melamine.

A poultry farm in Missouri is also being investigated, federal officials said.Wheat gluten, corn gluten, corn meal, rice bran and rice protein are among the imported products being tested in both the animal and human food supply.
