Did You Know . . . . ???
Del Monte's former pet products division has picked up a new moniker after selling off the ubiquitous Del Monte canned food. San Francisco-based Big Heart Pet Brands' product menu includes Meow Mix, Milk-Bone dog treats, Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance, 9Lives, Pup-Peroni, Milo's Kitchen, Nature's Recipe, Gravy Train, and Kibble 'n Bits, among others.
Per their "press release" in the San Francisco Business Times, this is purely a profit driven decision . . . . not a decision due to their "Big Hearts" wanting to help pets live healthier, longer lives. “As a standalone pet products company, Big Heart Pet Brands will be singularly focused on capturing growth opportunities in the expanding $21 billion pet products category,” said Dave West, president and CEO of Big Heart Pet Brands.
Just SOME of the questionable ingredients used in Big Heart brands:
* Meat and bone meal ~ Milk-Bone. Ingredient determined by FDA to be likely to contain a euthanized animal.
* Animal Fat ~ Meow Mix. Ingredient determined by FDA to be likely to contain a euthanized animal.
* BHA ~ Kibbles n’ Bits. An unnatural chemical preservative associated with serious illness.
* Meat By-Products ~ 9 Lives. Ingredient that could be sourced from rejected for use in human food meats.
* Dyes ~ various products. Of no nutritional benefit to the pet, some dyes have links to illness, including cancer, or even death.
The list goes on . . . and, many of the supplements used in Big Heart brands are sourced from “international suppliers” including China.
Why would you feed your pets things that can harm their health?! We prefer feeding food and treats from a company whose primary concern is the health of your pets . . . .not their bottom line, or their shareholders.
