I have read a few threads about people saying that their dog's got sick after ingesting Bully Sticks, but it turned out they were not Merricks Bully Sticks, I've done a little research on it, and as some of you already know, it's still not safe to get products that are made in China, any food product, or toys meant for children or pets. Their quality control just isn't very good, I know they take these things seriously because the presidents of the firms in question have committed suicide after this happened, however I think they will have to go several years without any mishaps, before people start trusting them again. The problem that I see, is that other countries might import from China, and then import here, saying it's from their country, how would you know? There are probably other safe Bully Sticks besides Merricks, but since they are the largest producer, if there was a problem you would hear about it faster than with the smaller companies where you are unlikely to hear of any problems ever. I have written the Merrick company about the safety of their product and I am satisfied with what I have learned.
By the way the question about them turning white when they are moist, that's natural, as they dry out again they darken.
