To be fair...The investigators are having a hard time finding oout what is wrong with this treat...
Tink seems to feel better and has more get up and go since she has been off of them.
Maybe 3 years ago,China was putting ground up Melamine, The same plastic that dishware is made of, in their pet products, and then it was found in their baby formula. Many animals died & some babies. It tests as a protein which is why it sometimes sneaks past "inspections".... The only other thing I can remember is that the Melamine was causing kidney failure.
