Just because Jack Hanna Says It's good. . .

. . .doesn't mean it's not made in China.

http://www.porkchomps.com/

From the FAQ:

Quote
Why aren’t Pork Chomps made in the United States?

We developed Pork Chomps after our extensive veterinary study affirmed pork skin to be a safe alternative to rawhide. We wanted to provide dog owners with a superior, long-lasting chew for their pets at a reasonable price. Due to the limited supply of U.S. pork skin, we looked for alternative sourcing. When we looked at China we found answers that made sense for our product. China has over twice as many pigs as the U.S. has humans. China processes their pork skin in a unqiue way that specifically fits the Pork Chomps process. China's quality standards are superior to many of the alternative countries and China continues to make high standards of quality a priority.

Surely there isn't -ANYONE- in the world that actually believes a statement like that.

Where is that quote taken from? I'd like to reply to it.

Click on the link in Dee's post.  Go to "About" and then to "Faq."  You'll find the info there, BUT there is no option to comment.

The thing is, I found out about it b/c Jack Hanna was advertising it on Animal Planet. I thought, "Well I should check those out for fat content. MAYBE it would be something Vlad could have."

I was reading the site and realized that I saw nothing about "MADE IN THE USA" like I'd expect with Jack Hanna being all into it. Nope. Got to the FAQ page and BAM! Kinda ticked me off.

He's lost a lot of my respect.

I filled out a contact us form and told him (politely) what I thought of his comment about China's "superior" quality standards.  I think I forgot to fill out the e mail box though.

I had a similar thought, though it was a bit more sarcastic.  Something like, yeah, 'cuz we all know that Chinese products are "superior" and "high quality."   ::)
