Lou Dobbs reporter says it's a "Las Vegas Supplier" who's Culprit in Tainted Pet Food!
All of us here on DU thought it was Archer Daniels Midland...but Lou says Las Vegas importer WITHOUT NAMING THE COMPANY!

So WHO is this Las Vegas Importer?

1. Probably a subsidiary of ADM
Just because he didn't say "a Decatur supplier" doesn't mean it isn't.

Critters
suspiciouser and suspiciouser

9. Thanks ...I thought the same...but Dobbs didn't give the Name of LV Supllier
Figures...doesn't it. Just focus on China and not the American "Perp" who bought the stuff or went looking for the "CHEAPEST" supplier. Dobbs is good in reporting this but is it a "Red Herring" to distract us from the fact that ADM is the only company who didn't answer when aked if THEY were THE Supplier?

Now we "internet Researchers" are supposed to go chasing an "Unknown/Unidentified" Las Vegas Supplier as the REAL CULPRIT IN DEATHS OF PETS...that is counted like Iraqi Civilian Deaths? :shrug:

3. The name is Chemnutra

The contaminated Chinese wheat gluten that led to the recall of pet food ended up only with manufacturers of food for animals, company officials said Tuesday.

The Chinese wheat gluten imported by ChemNutra Inc. went to companies that make pet foods, Stephen Miller, chief executive officer of the Las Vegas company, told The Associated Press.

Miller would not say which companies ChemNutra supplied.

6. I keep wondering if the media would be so protective of the perp company
if the rat poison had shown up in baby food.

Somehow I doubt it.

10. Don't have time to research but if anyone wants to ...try this on GOOGLE
Wheat Gluten Suppliers, Las Vegas or Las Vegas, Wheat Gluten Suppliers.

It's amazing what turns up with very "simple" requests. Happy Hunting! If anyone is game to GOOGLE IT!
