I'm not arguing with you about definitions of what goes into pet food or spam,etc.
I didn't say anything about conspiracies, just quoted the info on their own website, I am also not a PETA fan. I believe the definitions, didn't say I didn't. I am not saying anything about definitions of ingredients, just don't think most dog food places recycle animals from the Humane Society,dog pounds or road kill. You live in NC, I do too. Dead deer stay on the road till the trucks mush them and the weather blows and washes them from where they were killed. There used to be a dog food plant in Raleigh, not sure if its still there or not, they had a bad time with keeping rats out, perhaps cats got the real deal in their food
I understand there used to be a cattery in Charlotte that sold cats in large amounts to science places for students to dissect, perhaps they sold them to pet food places? In the Burlington area Carolina Biological used to buy already dead cats from the pound for dissection,but was accused by PETA of injecting latex into living cats..... even though they weren't.
Have a great weekend!
