Thank you for the heads up, hadn't seen that yet. Geez, I wonder what insane number of products this could be in? Any number of human products could have soy flour, in addition to the pet products. You have to check just about any manufactured food in your house....
Really, it's daunting when you think about your own food. I checked all the pet food and treats even though I was 99% sure there was no soy flour in it. I empty dog food into a large plastic bin so I'll have to check the label at the store.
Thanks so much for letting us know!
Looking for more info on human food actually, as my girlfriend has been ill recently. She is vegetarian, though not always eating a lot of soy. Probably not linked, but who knows?
I looked at my cat food and treats and nothing has any soy in it. That is what I thought, but it's nice to know for sure. I would expect this to be in foods towards the lower quality range of things, and mostly dry, but you should check all labels anyway. I was happy to note that even the Greenies Pill Pockets do not have any soy. That was the one thing I was most suspicious of among all the cat food items in the house.
i avoid soy like the plauge anyway due to its link to cancer and estrogen issues...
guess sometimes that little bit of paranoia pays off, no soy products come into my house lol
I wish there was some way to feed our cats meat from the grocery store, the same meats we eat. But they don't like raw or cooked table food. Then learning what kind of additives would be needed to make it a complete diet is overwhelming. Every time I open a can of cat food I wonder what I'm feeding them, what may be in the food.
Sue Thixton has just put out a pet food cookbook along with a DVM, haven't seen it, I assume it focuses on cats as well as dogs.
It was either her site The Pet Food I Recommend or one of the countless others I've been on lately, that dispell the myth that EVERY meal we serve our pets has to be nutritionally complete.
The process is cumulative just like our own way of eating.
