I know it sounds silly, but I mean common look at the many recalls at the pet food companies, and human foods that get away with so many things...
Did you know potato chips and other highly processed foods could contain toxic substances linked to cause cancer? Even things like pringles. So if foods made for human consumption aren't even safe - whose to say they will take it seriously with dog foods? I know it's not something that would merit a direct comparison but I mean really. Food is food regardless to who or what it is aimed at.
And you know companies can get away with putting these things into our foods because of loop holes and such.
My point is, I think the whole food regulation whether it be for a four legged friend, or yourself -- all of it should be completely overhauled highly regulated with the utmost strictest, unbiased scrutiny to where no one can alter it to their own companies' agendas.
Sorry if it comes off over-zealous it's just how I feel about all of these things whether it's for dogs or for people I really think things should be made safe. | Not silly or anything I totally get you and agree. When we have people dressed in full body suits spraying the food we eat there is an issue.
