Not digging the worm idea. Bugs are permitted in our food though.

Paying scientists for ten years to develop this feather diet was likely far more expensive than just putting good quality jeat in the food. i don't think anybody including RC is telling owners of healthy pets to feed this. It fills a huge need for a very small number of dogs - dogs that cannot eat animal protein and do not do well on things like soy. It is for extreme allergies and intolerances - something that is understandably very hard to consider bc dgs are seen as meat eaters.

Ellie does well on her soy pellets.
uf she didn't we would absolutely consider this food if it was a bit lower in fat. And homecooking is a nice thought, but some can't even tolerate that. I could spend months looking for ingredients that cause Ellie no severe symptoms. Probem is...she would have severe symtoms in the process including life threateningones.
My friends Yorkie was severely attacked by a neighbours GS and as a consequence of surgery stress and infection has lost the ability to absorb protein. Now she has no option but to feed probably similar soy pellets to you. She also requires calcium supplements and vitamins. It's very sad.
