Mincing is also a common way for many pet food companies, sadly, to hide poorer quality meat. The one exception currently is, due to a shortage of duck necks, the bone content in our \"with duck\" packs is minced and frozen duck carcass - still free range and from the UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOur meat isn't re-formed from leftovers\u003c\/strong\u003e - so it won't defrost into a slop.

It's also true some raw dog food companies add vegetables (which are much cheaper than meat) to bulk out their meals to increase profit. We don't agree with this.
