I mean... are Purina's Beneful commercials NOT false advertising? Not that they don't have cute commercials, because they do, but the images of healthy fresh cut REAL chicken and REAL beef falling from the sky aren't exactly truthful either?

Either way, I agree with Kristin, this could be interesting and possibly a good step to more uniformity within the pet food industry.
I think the pics aren't regulated. It is the ingredient list. Purina is probably saying BB is taking money from larger companies by not telling truth in ingredient list.
