Are You Paying For Poop?
Most commercial pet foods contain “meat by-products”. By law, “by-product” is defined as “up to 20% intestinal content”, or poop.
Most mass-produced pet foods are not made with human-grade ingredients. They contain cockroachs, rodent droppings, mold, intestinal products, floor sweepings and other discards from human food processing. “Animal digest” contains ground up euthanized pets put back into the pet food, pentobarbital and all.
From Wikipedia: Many animals euthanized at shelters or animal control agencies are sent to meat rendering facilities,[11] to be processed for use in cosmetics, fertilizer, gelatin, poultry feed, pharmaceuticals and pet food.[12] The amount of phenobarbital in dog food has caused dogs to become less responsive to the drug when being euthanized.
