Default Greenies Pill Pockets?

I was recently sent a sample of a new Greenies product. It's called Pill pockets, and it's a doggie treat with a hole in the middle to slip in medication.

Up till now, I've avoided edible Greenies products because I just don't think a dog needs to swallow a chew bone. And I have a dog that does that quickly. Others disagree and have gone back to Greenies since they changed their recipe in response to the scare a while back where some dogs developed a blockage after wolfing them down too quickly.

My question: Does this product seem safe to people who have avoided past Greenies products? Here are the ingredients. Do they raise any red flags?

Chicken, glycerin, wheat flour, natural flavors, dried corn syrup, corn flour, wheat gluten, chicken liver meal, vegetable oil, lecithin, brewer's dried yeast, potassium sorbate, methylcellulose, ascorbic acid, mixed tocopheros, vitamin E. supplement.

Made in USA
