There are several varieties, but here's the ingredients list for the original:

Beggin' Strips Original Bacon Flavor
3 oz.
Ground wheat, corn gluten meal, wheat flour, ground yellow corn, water, sugar, glycerin, meat, hydrogenated starch hydrolysate,soybean meal, bacon fat preserved with BHA, salt, sorbic acid (a preservative), artificial smoke flavor, calcium propionate (a preservative), glyceryl monostearate, phosphoric acid, choline chloride, added color (red 40, blue 1, yellow 5, yellow 6).

All the bolded is a red flag for me. Esp it says "meat". What kind of meat? That is so vague it could be roadkill. It needs to say from beef, chicken, fish, etc. Also why does there need to be artificial colors? And it has corn, not to mention all the other stuff that I don't even know what it is!

I would def skip this and give an organic one ingredient jerky or home made treat.
