"petfood" news and stories

Meaty Chunks with added marrow bone anyone? You pet food could be healthier than a lot of fast food according to  NWQ ATUDY. Tins of cat and dog food are not only good for their health but yours as well, as they contain less fat, salt and sugar levels than fast food.

Experts compared 30 different human meals with 15 readily available pet foods and declared that Gourmet Gold cat food, with 2.9 grams of fat per 100 grams, was eight times less fatty than pieces of Kentucky Fried Chicken with 23.2 grams of fat per 100 grams. Fat levels were also lower when compared to a McDonald’s Big Mac and a Pizza Hut meal.

It is a UK study that concluded that pet food was healthier under the Food Standards Agency’s new “traffic light” labelling scheme, than most of the food people eat. Except me - as I don't eat KFC/McDonalds/Pizza Hut meals - being a food snob and all.
