Re: Good food Choice?
It looks okay protein wise, but the fat is a bit low.
Another big thing is the fact that ethoxyquin is listed as a preservative. Ethoxyquin is known, anecdotally, to be the cause of cancer, other health problems, and birth defects in dogs, health problems in birds, and death in crabs and other insects (in fact, it's used as a pesticide too), so I, personally, would never feed any animal food with ethoxyquin listed as a preservative. Google it if you're interested.
