I know I am stretching, but could this be terrorist related? Maybe they wanted to show how easy it would be to hurt the human food supply? No better way to create panic.

I usually don't wear a tin-foil hat, but this was one of my first thoughts as well! What better example of American decadence than the way we treat our pets? Truthfully, many of our animals eat better than people in other countries, and I wouldn't put it past terrorists to attack us through our pets.

Pretty dumb way to do it. Why not prove it by poisoning human food, which will create a lot more panic? Plus they would actually kill people, which would is what they want to do in the first place.

Part of my preparedness method is that I buy most of my food including cat food on a long term rotation basis based on shelf life.

The canned chili I eat today has been in the pantry from 6 months to a year or even two, even my cat food is bought up to three or six months before consumption.

Your post made me realize that an added benefit of my shopping habits is that before I use a product, it has already been on the market long enough for any problems to show up.
