Tainted Wheat Blamed In Food Deaths Labeled Food Grade
It is looking like the wheat gluten that was responsible for the deaths of the dogs and cats in the Menu Food Recall was labeled “food grade”. This means that the same wheat may have been distributed for use in the human food chain.
The FDA has refused to name the supplier of the wheat so no one knows whether this company also supplies to human food distributors. That my friends is a scary thought.
Del Monte Foods has confirmed that the melamine-tainted wheat gluten used in several of its recalled pet food products was supplied as a “food grade” additive, raising the likelihood that contaminated wheat gluten might have entered the human food supply.
“Yes, it is food grade,” Del Monte spokesperson Melissa Murphy-Brown wrote in reply to an e-mail query.
Del Monte issued a voluntary recall Saturday for several products under the Gravy Train, Jerky Treats, Pounce, Ol’ Roy, Dollar General and Happy Trails brands.
Wheat gluten is sold in both “food grade” and “feed grade” varieties. Either may be used in pet food, but only “food grade” gluten may be used in the manufacture of products meant for human consumption. Published reports have thus far focused on tainted pet food, but if the gluten in question entered the human food supply through a major food products supplier and processor, it could potentially contaminate thousands of products and hundreds of millions of units nationwide. via The Huffington Post

The Namdar-case involves both Aruba and Curacao. It appears from leaked out e-mails that the American diamond dealer and businessman Effy Namdar has offered the Aruban government party MEP one million florins in bribery.

8.0 Magnitude Earthquake Hits South Pacicific and Tsunami Wave Hits the Solomons
A massive 8.0 magnitude earthquake hit the South Pacific. Since the initial earthquake there have been numerous aftershocks in the area as well. The undersea earthquake sent a tsunami crashing into the Solomon Islands.
Police and residents said a wave about 10 feet high struck the western town of Gizo, inundating buildings and causing widespread destruction. A man who answered the telephone at the Gizo police station said there were initial reports that eight people, six of them children, had been killed by the tsunami but they were still unconfirmed. The phone cut out abruptly before the man gave his name.
Gizo resident Judith Kennedy said water “right up to your head” swept through the town.
“The waves came up probably about 10 feet and swept through town,” he told Australia’s Nine Network television by telephone. “There’s a lot of water damage and a lot of debris floating around,” he added.
“Ten feet of water washing through town—you can imagine what damage it has done here.” (Breitbart)
