Christine Drummond is a New Zealand business woman with a heart.
Her dream: to send food aid to the poor in Kenya. The thing is, she runs a dog food business. The Kenyan
government has replied that the offer is in "bad taste."
The founder of Mighty Mix dog biscuits insists, however, that while the same ingredients are used in both the dog food and the nutritional supplement (Raw Dry Nourish), they are not the same. The powder is a natural, high-powered nutrient-rich food combining flax seeds, green-lipped mussels and something called deer velvet (which doesn't sound at all appetizing). She is also sending 42 tons of maize in addition to the 6000 emergency packs. The food should feed 140 orphans for two months.
TV New Zealand has a video clip on the story.
