Hello everyone
We have been talking about natural grains, commodity grains, but what brand belongs to natural grains, what brands belong to commodity grains, in fact, which brand is natural, which is commodity grain is very vague
Every brand says it is a natural grain, and no brand says its own commodity grain, is this possible?
There is a foreign cat and dog food shopping website called petco, they found dozens of artificial preservatives, pigments, flavors, and then all the cat and dog food containing artificial preservatives, pigments, flavors are all off the shelves and not sold
In this case, the brands sold by Petco are grains that do not contain artificial preservatives, colors, and flavors
Although they cannot be called natural grains, they are also relatively natural
So I'll record all these signs, and I'll talk about this today
let's go~
Explain in advance, if some brands are domestic, or looking for other countries to oem, not from the United States, Canada, or not sold in China, I will not write it, you can go directly to petco's official website to see what brands, what formulas are sold
Petco sells brands, they promise that there are no chemical preservatives, colors, flavors, the specific brands are as follows, the number is the number of formulas
I saw that above petco there were so-called famous commodity grain giants Baolu, Royal, Guanneng, Hills and the like in it
I took a look at Baolu and it had been killed by petco, just the link hanging
The domestic Baolu is also a stable additional addition of artificial preservatives bha, bht
However, the royal, Hills, and Crown Energy have not been killed by petco, that is to say, some of the formulas of the Royal, Hills, and Crown Energy of the United States are free of artificial preservatives, pigments, and flavors
Giving a grain a hat is the easiest way to spread, discuss
But as a friend who looks at my public account, I still hope that everyone can go to see it alone
Brands that you think are bad may also have good recipes, brands that you think are good may also have bad recipes, and the same brand formula may also have good or bad recipes
Smart people pay attention to the distinction
After September 1st, the domestic grain ingredient list should be divided into two lines according to the requirements, one line is raw materials, and the second line is additives
Therefore, after September 1st, we will also know what additives are added to each domestic grain
At that time, I will also collect new packaging of domestic grains to see which are commercial grains with artificial preservatives, flavors, and pigments
Let's see what is the commodity grain that has been packed with natural grain pits for decades, treating everyone as a little fool
Here we take a look at which raw materials are artificial preservatives, artificial colors, artificial flavors
The names of these raw materials are all machine-turned, and everyone needs the original version to go to the reference materials to see

Petco began to have standards, not everything was sold
What about domestic sellers? Are there standards for selling goods? The general situation in The country is that bad goods have high profits, continuous goods, really good things have low profits, out of stock, and some regulatory risks
A lot of people are willing to sell rotten goods, just bad money
But I hope that everyone will think again, do you have a good conscience for what you sell? Are you worthy of your own cats and dogs? Worthy of trusting your customers?
I also hope that everyone will learn more professional knowledge, do not have a good conscience, but do not understand the recommendation of bad products
I'll stop here today
