Just read about Mice Direct's rodent problem with salmonella and their solution to "irradiate" the rodents. As a long time vegan and organic food advocate (I prefer to limit my pesticide consumption), this is not good news if other producers follow in their footsteps. I would sell off my entire collection before any irradiated product is used. This is just another way for the nuclear industry to get rid of it's nuclear waste. I won't even feed my cats the crap they sell in supermarkets.

Here's hoping rodent pro and big cheese don't follow suit; it's been fun so far, but ???

Mike
