People who feed, based on what Susan reccomends, is really, not any different, than what the major pet food companies do, in their aggressive marketing commercials, the feel good commercials, with the kitties, doggies, puppies, kittens, and the humans having a "wonderful" life. Its designed to make you feel good about the product, hence, you go and buy it. Its the same with the pretty pictures of kitties and doggies on the bags, and the pictures of meat, on the bags. Its a fact, consumers will buy, based on the commercials and what is on the bag. So, what Susan does, which I never even looked at it, just going by the posts, is really not any different.
Heck, how many people starting using Blue Wilderness, because Bump recommended it?
Its the same with athletes, or a celebrity, doing a commercial, about a product. People will go buy the product, only because a big name athlete or celebrity endorses it, that too, is a fact.
Next time you see a pet food commercial, really look at it, and listen to what they say, and look at the little production they put on for you.
Its up to the consumer, to do the research, about the product, but, most won't, the marketing/advertising companies, are betting on it, betting like a zillion dollors on it, mol.
I know most would not know this, but, a 50 lb bag of doggie food, costs twice, what a 50 lb bag of horsie grain costs. Ever wonder why? And the ingredients in the horsie grain, are of way better quality, because, horsie people demand it. They ain't so stupid, as alot of pet parents out there, altho, petty parents is getting smarter than they used to be, hence, the petty foodie companies have adjusted too. Starting to get the picture?
