I can only see that it is meal and not fish from this quote....
Fish meals, NOT fish ingredients are a concern with ethoxyquin. As example, ‘salmon’ listed on a pet food label would not be an ethoxyquin preserved ingredient; ‘salmon meal’ might be. The ONLY way to know is to ask the manufacturer specifically. Warning however, some responses I have received did not directly answer my ethoxyquin question. As example, one manufacturer told me “we do not add ethoxyquin to any of our pet foods”. This response does NOT tell me if their supplier might add ethoxyquin. I am waiting for their
follow up response.
What really concerns me from this quote is that when the manufacturer was asked if they use ethoxyquin they said no. BUT that does not mean the fish meal supplier did did use it .....This is the pet foods sneaky way of skirting the issue....Scary.....It seems the only way to be absolutely sure is to NOT use pet food with fish meal in it.....
