I mean, we have staph.aureus all over our skin right now, and it's fine, but if we break the skin and happen to have an overgrowth of s.aureus and the right conditions, it can be disastrous.

Like, in spices (for humans) I think it's 10% can be insects...so does that mean more than 10% could cause us problems or...what? (just an analogy)
WHAT?!?!

But then confused again. Raw feeders believe dogs can handle this stuff because food moves through quickly and this is what wolves ate anyway. So, then do wolves count the % of salmonella they get? lol. My question then is, why do raw food companies care about the %?

Doesn't NV still manufacture canned food at Menu? Not a huge fan...
