What’s up with by-products in pet food?
Some people cringe when they see the word meat by-products on their pet’s food bag. However, contrary to popular belief and certain internet sources, by-products can actually be an excellent source of highly digestible nutrients for your pet.
By law animal by-products can’t include feathers, hair, hide, hooves or intestinal contents. They can however contain clean liver, kidneys, lungs, and splenic tissue. In fact we eat meat by-products all the time. Bet you never thought of soup broth or Jello as a nasty by-product of the meat industry?
