It seems dairy cows, cats, dogs, roadkill, garbage, and tuberculosis lungs are the main ingredients. Sound inhumane? In the United States it is illegal for these items to be served to humans. Fortunately, pets aren't human. From an energy efficiency point of view, this is actually a great system. Using items such as roadkill and euthanized pets to meet demand for pet food reduces the number of cows that are raised and slaughtered to make pet food. The 'inhumane' items are dead anyway - why kill more? I wonder what PETa's stance is on this issue... Regardless, the following should be noted:
- Owning animals is probably more unethical than feeding them commonly available commercial pet food.
- Eating any form of meat as a human, whether it is steer, roadkill, or otherwise, is barbaric.
