Also, I'm not a huge fan of giving your dog (or human, for that matter) soy every single day (you've probably heard of those studies). Fillers are things that are mostly non-nutritional, like beet pulp and other junkers.
No offense to the lovely Erin, I hope, whose store - Barkaholics - I'd like to live in, if she'd let me - which she won't - bc I've already asked. Meanie. |
Haha you're so funny.
And you're right - it's not a filler. I was comparing it to the super high end brands but really we should be comparing it to the other "grocery store" brands in which case it is definitely a far better choice. Which, now that I am awake and can think straight, it pretty much how Trader's is. Most of their stuff isn't super health foods, but just regular stuff they take the preservatives and additives out of. Like they have brand-name-like-stuff but without the chemicals and preservatives and MSG and hydrogenated oils. People always ask me why I shop at a "health food store" Heehee. Traders is not healthy in the low-fat, calorie sense unless you want it to be. You can still fill up on cookies and ice cream and potato chips, they are just better for you
OK sorry I'm done now.
