The Honest Kitchen’s Proper Toppers dog food on amazon sells for $9.99 for a 5.5 oz bag. On the bottom, it states Made in the USA with ingredients from around the world (nothing from China).
Nothing from China … when everything is made in China
Ouch!
I thought about No dogs no Chinese allowed … very different tho.
A key factor for this statement is likely from the FDA recall of pet foods in 2007 and the milk scandal in China the following year. The key factor in both cases is adding melamine 三聚氰胺.
据说当时美国人发现三聚氰胺后百思不得其解,不知道为啥添加这玩意,还以为是老鼠药污染造成的.记得当时美国新闻媒体报道都是怀疑中国粮食仓库看管不严,造成老鼠药污染.后来终于有知情的中国人忍不住,偷偷告诉美国人添加三聚氰胺的奥秘,高手云集的美国学术界这才恍然大悟.
