I just talked with a Customer Rep from Diamond Dog Food Company - makers of Taste of the Wild. I was assured that Taste of the Wild does not contain BHA or BHT and does not "add" any ethoxyquin. However she did say that some of the protein sources that they used did contain ethoxyquin but it was destroyed in the extrusion process.

My dogs are doing well on the TOTW High Prairie Roasted Bison and Roasted Venison formula. I have buy kibble today and like each time I buy a bag, I worry myself sick. I tried the home cooking, but for 7 yorkies plus the boxer it just didn't work for me.
I know what you mean, Cindy. One of my favorite foods for my guys was TOTW's Pacific Stream - they do so well on it. But, it DOES contain this stuff so I took it out of their rotation. I wish I knew just how much was removed in processing....but then again, I'd probably still worry that it was too much. Why can't they find another preservative, you can't tell me there aren't others to choose from. It just seems like there's a problem with every single food I want to try.
