Pinball, you're
I'm not as well-versed on the commercial foods these days
so I'll leave that to you and folks who are savvy in that regard.
I see your points but ...
...Oh, I am not sure whether I would be quite as damming about research conducted by or on behalf of pet food manufacturers - depending on the subject of course!...
I'm just too biased, against the biased. What I mean is, because they are Ok with including ethoxyquin, BHT ... soy... very species-inappropriate things to their foods, I must disqualify their credibility entirely, by default.
I have had the frustrating dilemma of finding great information to share, only to see something objectionable being "endorsed" (the ol hook, line & sinker.) So I feel that citing them (only speaking for myself of course) it would "reflect poorly" on whatever the good information itself might be.
If they're telling us
those things are good, how can I trust anything they might say?
That's just my warped perspective -- I'm sure plenty of others feel differently.
And hope they chime in.
