Most of the ethoxyquin is destroyed in the cooking process, requiring other preservatives to be used. Tests for ethoxyquin are run routinely on Taste of the Wild products. The results are typically less than 5ppm. The amount allowed, and considered to be safe, by the FDA is 75ppm.

...it says ETQ is pretty much removed once undergoing heat. Since the products arrive preserved, then get put into the food and cooked at TOTW, the ETQ is mostly destroyed.

Seems like it would okay for an occational rotation...

However, if you read Iams side of it, they claim ETQ survives under high heat!!!
Ethoxyquin remains stable at the high temperatures required to process pet foods during extrusion. It is important in protecting fats and oils from degrading, losing available calories, and becoming rancid.

Of course!

Whoa. I've never seen the Iams label. That is really confusing. It's difficult to know who to trust.
