The best advice is to still stay away from wheat gluten in any pet food.
Three Nutro cat varieties not on recall list found to contain melamine in
private lab test. What this really means is anyone's guess, as no one is
really sure if melamine is actually doing anything (due to lack of studies
in cats/dogs) or a marker of an unknown substance, or if melamine is
everywhere......

I found this interesting!:

Menu Foods CFO Sold His Shares Weeks Before Recall
Menu Foods CFO sold almost half of his Menu Foods shares after the
initial customer complaints. And calls a "horrible coincidence".
Something stinks. Does he want Martha Stewart's number?

The chief financial officer of Menu Foods Income Fund says it's a
"horrible coincidence" that he sold nearly half his units in the
troubled pet food maker less than three weeks before a massive recall
of tainted pet food.

Thanks for the tip SMichelle.
