Menu Foods: 71 Days Of Harassment?

Posted by Slobokan @ 23:07 · 231 words · print

When your product has killed as many as 4,000 pets, I don't think you should be screwing around with the people whose live they shared…

The pet food company that recalled 60 million cans of contaminated dog and cat food repeatedly made harassing phone calls to pet owners who had lawyers and said they didn't want to talk, even after a judge ordered the firm to leave them alone, court records show.

Lawyers from six firms representing clients who claim their pets were harmed by Menu's pet food asked a federal judge in New Jersey Wednesday to stop Menu from "bullying" people who had called the company since the recall was announced March 16, according to their court filing.

"Menu's representatives asked owners to sign releases which waived their right to get advice from a lawyer," said attorney Jay Edelson in an interview

"It seems to me that Menu Food is out to do whatever Menu Foods wants to do in a way that could adversely impact the rights of possible members of the class action suit," he said, according to the transcript.

Like I said on day one when Menu Foods released their "not for the US Newswire Services" press release, they are more worried about the financial health of the "fund" than they are of the physical health of our pets.

    Since they like harrasment tactics.Don't buy any Products made by this company, Maybe that will get their attention.

    Personally, I think avoiding their products is more important for the well being of my pet, rather than their wallet.

    I do agree, however, that a boycott is in order in the future. You know, when they finally find all the products they sell that may or may not be contaminated.

    This type of behavior is typical of the Communist Chinese. America must stay strong and not let the Chinese overtake us.

    I agree Mike, but I wonder how much they have done to the food supply already…
