Question (read)
Kibblelady,
I called several commercial pet food companies. Including Purina. They do use rendered meats in the food. Do you have any info on rendering plants? I am curious because whether the book is old or not doesn't mean its not true. Even if pets aren't in there ,diseased animals and any food not fit for human consumption is. I went on your site and read your information. In the past I have spoken with the owner of Verus pet foods. He explained the process to me. Their food is transported in a truck that is registered FDA and is inspected upon arrival from Tyson. It is funny that you mention that. I only know what I read and I think the general public needs to know all aspects. I have searched rendering plants and other online articles and they say cats & dogs are included. http://purehealthsystems.com/render.html Even if cats & dogs were not included the parts that are in rendered meat are disgusting. The bottom line is quality pet food with NO ingriedents from China and no rendered meats are out there and are either the same price as commercial foods or a bit more.

The following message was in reply to the "parent" topic above.

Rendering plant's render lots of things..


but it does not mean that all rendered fats and meats in pet food are contaminated or unfit for pets to eat it just means that they were rendered. Fat scraps are sent to renderers and then mixed together to make products for the renderer to sell. Go back and read my section about pets in pet food (which BTW is a myth) www.eastgsd.com/kibblesense
