The third ingredient in America's most recognized dog biscuit is meat and bone meal — rendered material from an unspecified animal, ground to powder — and the fat on it is preserved with BHA, which the National Toxicology Program lists as reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen. All of it is printed on the box, in order, by law.
Further down this list is a category where the Food and Drug Administration logged more than 6,200 sick dogs and over 1,140 deaths across eight years, tested for everything it could think of, and never identified a cause.
