EMPORIA, Kan. (AP) _ Workers returned to the Menu Foods plant in Emporia today, ending a shutdown that began more than a week ago after a massive recall of pet food made by Menu.

The Canadian company recalled 60 million containers of wet pet food that had been made at the Emporia plant and a plant in New Jersey.

It was unclear today whether the Emporia plant was back at full capacity.

Paul Henderson, the head of Menu, said Friday that all its pet food made after March sixth is safe.

Menu in Emporia is still not at full capacity as half of their workers are still off without pay. Also the gluten supplier has issued a recall, but it seems they are way late doing so IMO. http://www.fda.gov/oc/po/firmrecalls/chemnutra04_07.html
