1.15.2024 ....The Purina Affair
Phyllis Entis: I've been a food safety advocate for more years than I care to remember. I have been involved in food safety for half a century. Ever since I got out of school, I've been, one way or another, involved in food safety. Either on the corporate side, or the industry side, or as an advocate and it never seems to get any better. Which is sad.
Tazz Latifi: Has it gotten worse?
Phyllis Entis: To some extent, I think it has because the industry has continued to grow and the regulatory bodies have continued to shrink. And so, how do you enforce a speed limit if you don't have enough cops with radar guns?
Tazz Latifi: True, that's where the consumer advocates come in… to pinpoint these trends. So that you as the pet owners can have an awareness… to be able to make better choices for your pets and the foods you buy.
