I’ve always been cynical, now I’m angry.
Trust Chinese food for pets? These are people who are living below 3rd world status. If a million Chinese died from food poisoning tomorrow they would hardly be missed. Female babies are left, alive, to die on the streets. Do we really think they care about our dogs and cats( which, by they way, they consider food)?
And as for Vets. They are making a lot of $$ selling Science Diet( not to mention treating sick pets), I don’t trust any of them to lose money by telling us the truth. I don’t think ANY commercial pet foods are safe- and I predict this will end up concerning human food as well. Wheat gluten in bread- rice gluten in baby food- just wait! Last month the latest brands on the list were ‘safe’, remember?
I cook for my maltepoo-just as I had cooked for my Shelties.
And as for ‘organic’ foods. Here’s a shocker- it’s usually on the ‘honor system’! Here in LA, a friend who owns a citrus farm was told he should register his farm as ‘organic’. He could charge more for his produce that way. When he told them he wasn’t organic, he was told that didn’t matter- it was the ‘honor system’, and no one was going to check. All he had to do was lable his citrus ‘organic’ and he( and the retailer) could charge more!
Think about that the next time you pay double for ‘organic’ anything.
And I’ll always say that the problem with spinach was human waste. Migrant worker pick all that produce, in huge fields, and I promise you there aren’t port-a-potties out there for them.
That is scary... about the organic food... thanks for telling me. Where in the heck is the FDA? Oh, I just remembered, trying to take away vitamins and herbs unless prescribed by doctors for big $$$.. perhaps if they controlled the people growing the food we wouldn’t need supplements.
