I think the problem with smaller companies is that they just do not have as much money to put into QC. Obviously it looked like the opposite in 2007, but look at Merricks for instance. They have had enough recalls IMO... Evangers was in a bit of trouble with the FDA. NB was recalled in '07 with the other pet foods and I think it had something to do with their manufacturer not being truthful with them or something...
I'm just not a fan of any of it. I don't like by-products, ethoxyquin, BHA/BHT, etc., but I also don't like companies telling their customers that their food is "holistic" or whatever they are saying now. It's all marketing. And if the ingredients were really as good as they looked on the package, then they would be used for human food... |
I wanted to add that I found an FAQ discussing these exact things. She seemed confident that the levels found in dog food were too minute to cause harm. Like you, I don't like them either, but it did give me some reassurance since I have fed quite a bit of TOTW's Pacific Stream.
I'm so glad you posted that link. I've really enjoyed reading through a lot of those questions. I still have about 100 more to go and then I'll be done (of course I'm only looking at ones that interest me).
