Company fined millions for selling poisoned food
Amazon didn't like my first review so, I'm trying again. They want me to speak directly to the product. I am. I bought this product - probably more than once. I purchased another "brand" manufactured by Scott's as well: Songbird Blend No-Waste Patio seed. Possibly others. I was in the process of purchasing more when I decided to read the reviews. Many of those reviews were drawing attention to Scott's evil acts. I googled it to be certain because it was almost unbelievable. Scott's was fined millions in 2012 for knowingly and intentionally coating their various "brands" of bird seed with insecticide. They did it for years. Coated seed with insecticide that corporate management - and their various scientists - knew was lethal to birds, fish and other wildlife. I will never buy another Scott's product - bird seed or anything else. (In retrospect, pretty stupid for me to "trust" bird seed manufactured by a company that specializes in poisons?!) I urge all to not buy this seed. Most of the millions of pounds sold were not recovered. It is certainly plausible that the non-recovered poisoned seed is being sold on Amazon at a "discount". Amazon - take all Scott's bird seed off your website or publish a warning. Your customers trust you. Don't just refuse to post reviews that tell the truth.
