I suppose when we had the spinach e-Coli scare, you quipped that the nice healthy spinach was causing vomiting and diarrhea. It's an isolated cause for a specific reason- you make it sound like they've systematically manufactured poison.



Your prejudice notwithstanding, this has nothing to do with the "processed pet food industry", it has to do with one supplier and one batch of bad ingredient. Don't you think it's a little irresponsible to lead people to believe there's something wrong with pet food as a whole because of this one specific problem?

Thankfully, my dogs only eat dry food, so no worries here. I hope everyone else's are faring well, too.
No.

All processed pet food is bad for your animal.

Take a look at that list. It's pretty obvious that like most other manufacturing, there are 2 or 3 manufacturers out there who just slap the product in whatever bag. Eukanuba today, IAMS tomorrow.

Dry food is far worse for your animal than the wet stuff by the way.

Pet food is made to be convienient for humans and give corporations a way of disposing of garbage that they would have to pay to get rid of otherwise.

I am simply trying to educate people who have been duped over the years by the pet food industry.
