Yea Susan.  Sadly, things haven't improved much, in general since she wrote that article.  But...at least more people are learning. I don't know if it will ever change, but at least there are more, and more each day, who are starting to realize, and try to feed their pets better.

It is an old article, but I still found it interesting.

The existing rules of the pet food industry allow "unqualified claims, either directly or indirectly" on pet food labels. Misleading yes, but it's nothing new to advertising.

Yes, very interesting, and I am tempted to post it in a forum where I post sometimes where no one seems much interested in the lies that are on their bags of cat food. They mostly don't want to know. :(
