Dog Food Facts
Do you ever take the time to read the labels on your pet's food? You maybe surprised at some of the ingredients, fillers and additives and where the 'main ingredient' is listed on the label. Thanks to www.dogfooddangers.com, the source for this article.
PRODUCT NAME
The first thing most of us notice on any label is the product name.
This, to many, is part of being a savvy shopper; to know what we
are buying.
Of course, manufacturers are going to polish up their product in
order to appeal to a greater mass.
This is where diligence and observance comes in on the consumer's
part; you really have to know what you are buying.
Only ¼ of the entire product needs to consist of those named
products so when you have a product such as that Lamb Dinner, the
lamb may not be the main ingredient.
Ingredients must be listed in a descending order of weight. So,
even though the bag says Lamb Dinner, the lamb may be fourth in
order.
NET QUANTITY STATEMENT
Basically, the net quantity statement is how much of the product is
in the container.
There are many regulations stating where this information needs to
be displayed and in what format.
The quantity statement is used to compare products in order to
determine which offers the best value.
The problem is that very few consumers bother to look at this
statement. Even if they do read the ingredients and other
nutritional facts, the net quantity statement goes ignored.
The net quantity statement is one of the most important items to
consider when comparing products and price.
It is recommended that consumers compare dog food products on a
cost-per-ounce or even a cost per-pound basis.
Also, remember that quality vs quantity is an important indicator
when purchasing brands.
If you are comparing the same brand of differing size, but are
unsure what to buy in order to save the most, remember that often
times the smaller size bags are also the higher price per pound .
