Poll: Anniversary of Pet Recall

It's great that the largest recall ever has continued in the news along with a focus on many other recalls since the loss of thousands of pets.

Now a year later there's still a lot going on online to keep the public active and involved to prevent this kind of atrocity again. Fanny Syufy of Cats.About.com shows these links in a recent blog.

• Are pet foods and treats made in China safe for my pet to eat?
• A year after pet food recall, still buyer beware
• A year after Menu Foods scandal, pet food off the radar of regulators
• Food safety system near "breaking point": FDA
• Teen's illness stirs pet food debate
• Last Years Pet Food Recall

Franny posted a poll on her blog and the results are encouraging that not all pet owners and consumers have become complacent on this issue.

The poll question asked: "A year after the pet food recalls, have you regained your trust in the pet food industry?"

At 340 votes, 155 readers (45%) voted SOMEWHAT, but not entirely.
More hopeful was that 152 readers (44%) voted NO.
